FIESTA FINAL DE TRIMESTRE, 2007/CELEBRATION FOR THE END OF THE TERM, 2007


OUR STUDENTS/NUESTROS ESTUDIANTES


WELCOME TO THE SPANISH & ARTS SCHOOL SOCIETY


WORDS FROM OUR PRINCIPAL, OLIMPIA ALEGRÍA

I am passionate about the role of Latin American arts and culture in Canada’s cultural mosaic. Over the years I have worked with like-minded and colleagues to create a unique and exciting program in Western Canada. Our program stresses understanding, trust and acceptance for every one of our students, regardless of culture or background. We are highly skilled, experiences educators who want to make a difference in the lives of the students and families we touch. Our program uses dance, art, classroom instruction and wide range of activities to engage our students in the rich cultural diversity that is Latin America. So when students complete a program with us, we hope they will be inspired to use their newfound cultural knowledge and skills in their continuing growth and development. I look forward to meeting you
