Austin ISD issued the following announcement.
Every year from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15, Austin ISD joins the rest of the country to observe National Hispanic Heritage Month—a celebration of the diverse cultures and riveting histories of the people in this country with ancestral roots in Spain, Mexico, and Central and South America.
This year, we are celebrating with our students through a virtual talent show. AISD students can showcase their talents by submitting photos or videos of how they celebrate their Hispanic culture at home. The categories include:
- Dancing.
- Music or Singing.
- Writing or Storytelling.
- Drawing.
Accepted submissions will be posted on the Educa Austin Facebook page by October 12. Students may participate with their families.
Winners will be announced on Oct. 15 through a virtual award ceremony.
Prizes:
- Two Chromebooks to the top two photos or videos with the highest number of reactions on their post, regardless of category.
- A $100 H-E-B gift card to the posts with the highest number of reactions in each category.
