The annual Spring Mercado brought students and staff together once again for a day filled with food, games and school spirit. The long-standing tradition offered a welcome break from academics as the campus transformed into a vibrant celebration.
Students in Mrs. Torres’ Practicum in Entrepreneurship class played a key role in preparing for the event, working for weeks on decorations.
“I was in class helping Mrs. Torres make flowers,” said student Rubi. “It was a lot of work to create each one, but it was worth it because I enjoy doing DIY projects, and the end result was very pretty.”
Although some traditional food options were missing this year, attendees still enjoyed a variety of snacks — many of them at lower prices.
“I noticed that this year they did not have tacos or brisket sandwiches, but they made up for it with other snacks at a pretty good price,” Rubi said.
The day was filled with laughter and activity, as students visited booths, sampled treats, and created lasting memories.
“I had so much fun with my friends during our last mercado,” said Alexa. “We visited almost every table, and we made so many memories.”
From colorful decorations to cheerful crowds, the Spring Mercado once again delivered a festive atmosphere for the school community to enjoy.
