Fall Senior Night

Día de los Muertos is a Spanish tradition. It is believed that when a person passes away family and friends create an Ofrenda for their loved one to come back and enjoy once a year. Children, teenagers and pets are remembered on November 1st., and adults on November 2nd. Ofrendas typically include: a loved one’s picture, papel picado, candles, flores de cempasúchil, soap, water, pan de muerto, and calaveras de azúcar. Each ofrenda is customized by adding the loved one’s favorite food, drinks, and mementos. Spanish II students created shoebox Ofrendas for themselves to see in 100 years from now!! 🖤🏵💀🕯 A dedication to the deceased Day of the Dead (Dia De Los Muertos) is a two day holiday that reunites the living and dead. Families create ofrendas (Offerings) to honor their departed family members that have passed. These altars are decorated with bright yellow marigold flowers, photos of the departed, and the favorite foods and drinks of the one being honored. The offerings are believed to encourage visits from the land of the dead as the departed souls hear their prayers, smell their foods and join in the celebrations! Day of the Dead is a rare holiday for celebrating death and life. It is unlike any holiday where mourning is exchanged for celebration.
