Mohonasen students Cha Cha their way into the salsa scene
March 2008
On
Wednesday, March 5, approximately 30 students were immersed in a
high energy Latin dance class after school.
AlbanySalsa.Com Dance Studio’s Felix Ortiz came to Mohonasen
High School to teach students—and some teachers— about salsa, which
is growing in popularity in the Capital Region.
The Latin dance class was just one of the activities surrounded by
Foreign Language Week, March 3-9.
In addition to the Latin dance class, the high school morning
announcements were announced in a variety of languages, such as
Punjabi, German (which was announced by German foreign exchange
student Steven Gering), Arabic and French. The high school also
played music from Puerto Rico, Germany, France, the Middle East and
Italy. The French honor society also sold crepes in the high school
store, “The Trading Post.”
