Celebrating Hispanic Culture / Celebrando la Cultura Hispana
¡Ayer fue un día lleno de orgullo y alegría hispana! Yesterday was a day full of Hispanic pride and joy!
Members of the Hispanic Honor Society, along with Spanish 1 and 2 Honors students from Grafton High School, traveled to West Taylor Elementary School and Flemington Elementary School to share the richness of Hispanic culture.
They performed lively skits 🎭, traditional folkloric & modern dances 💃, and beautiful songs 🎶 — and even taught Hispanic dances and some Spanish to the elementary students! It was a vibrant day of celebration, learning, and cultural connection.

Last week in Charleston, four students from Grafton High School participated in the Youth in Government program presented by the Youth Leadership Association. Prior to attending Youth in Governments, these students researched needs in West Virginia and wrote legislation that they felt was important for our state.
Bryce Isner was the Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Jaylin Summers and MJ Niggemyer served in the House, while Sophia Austin served as a lobbyist.
These students were able to meet with students from all over the state and consider different issues and viewpoints those students feel were important.
Grafton High School's Youth Leadership Association (YLA) chapter allows students to consider public policy issues in programs like this and Model United Nations.
