Foreign Language Students had the opportunity to learn about the bread making tradition during Día de los Muertos. Students participated in the kneading of the bones for the bread made by the head baker at La Esperanza Bakary in Dalton. We also enjoyed learning about different items sold at a typical Hispanic business store, tried traditional Mexican ice cream, tamales, and drinks, and enjoyed some great Fall weather at the park.
It's GAME DAY at the Furnace!
Join us tonight as we honor and celebrate our seniors 🏈
