Mini Spirit Week: 

Wed, May 4: May the 4th Be With You (Star Wars Day!!!)

Thurs, May 5: Wear colors of the Mexican Flag to celebrate Hispanic Culture and Cinco de Mayo. Here is a little bit of background info about the day...Cinco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is a holiday that celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s May 5, 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. The day is also known as Battle of Puebla Day. While it is a relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the United States, Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations.
