Hispanic Heritage Month
Collective Heritage: Honoring the Past, Inspiring the Future
This year's theme reflects the heart of RPS — where our students, families, and staff bring rich traditions and diverse experiences to every classroom. Throughout September and October, we’ll share stories of our RPS community that honor the history, culture, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino trailblazers while inspiring our students to dream big and lead boldly. Together, we celebrate the vibrant heritage that makes RPS stronger and our future brighter.
