Culture Pride

Increasing cultural awareness through Folklorico is important to the Mathew J. Brletic Elementary School community as it builds pride in the cultural richness of Mexico. Over 25 students participated in demonstrating their talent with three dances during Parlier Unified's showecase.

This type of dance reflects the traditions, cultures, and beliefs of people in the Jalisco region. Students learned about other types of dances throughout Mexico’s regions, and they learned about their meaning by reading books, viewing videos, and listening to Folkloric music. This project contributed to positive health outcomes by getting students physically active and moving with a purpose.
