ʿ International Academy is home to the Dual Language and the Newcomer programs. Younger students at the school marched around the block bordering school through a throng of cheering older students, community members, family members and well-wishers.

Hispanic Heritage Month recognizes the contributions and influence of Hispanic Americans to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States.
