Spanish III students visited the Sofia Quintero Art & Cultural Center in Toledo to celebrate the Day of the Dead. They viewed authentic ofrendas (altars), dedicated mariposas (butterflies) for loved ones who are no longer with us, painted their own mariposas, and prepared esquites (Mexican corn salad) for lunch. #BeABlackKnight
