Teacher’s Day

The Palapa School: Teachers’ Day (Día del Maestro)

By Arias S., Student

Teachers are the individuals who keep a school running, so shouldn’t we celebrate that? Teacher’s Day was celebrated in Todos Santos, and our event shone brightly. My school set out to have a great day where teachers would feel appreciated, while also having fun with the students. My class decided to organize a rally with fun activities for the teachers and their groups.

The entire student body worked hard to make an event like this happen, and we managed to organize some enjoyable festivities. Each teacher received a customized award to show how much we appreciate them individually. We created activities challenging their intellect and showcasing their knowledge of the subjects they taught.

Days like these are so important and desired in a school because they help teachers understand how much they are needed. This event helped students work together to create a space where they can feel proud and comfortable with what they are doing. I am grateful we had the opportunity to experience something as great as this and hope through this article, you can see how much we support our teachers.

Student Blog: Reunion at The Beach

by

Student Blog by Arias S

As students and teachers prepared to leave for Spring break, there was a general feeling of wanting to end with a big bang. So, the school threw a Beach Day including our families, not in separate groups, but in one big reunion as a school.

Ms. Olivia Grijalva, a teacher at our school said, “This was a great experience among students, teachers, and parents.” Teachers planned events and games. Students and their parents were invited to participate. All events were planned so everyone was capable of doing them.

This was both a bonding experience for everyone, as well as something The Palapa Society provided to make us, the students, feel more comfortable with our surroundings and teachers. I believe they did a great job mixing a beach day with physical activity making the day before a break memorable.

Thank you, and we hope this will continue in future years.

Student Blog: Todos Santos Open Studio Tour, by Coral

by

Being at the Open Studio Tour event, originally located in Todos Santos, B.C.S. The Todos Santos Market in Doce Cuarenta, the location and destination of the 38 artists, has once again brought them together in this town that is characterized by being an attraction and acting seductively thanks to local crafts, being its touch of a magical town.

Likewise, creating the concept of Tour, by local artists scattered throughout the town, located by a map with a corresponding number and thus be visited, creating a tour.

However, this was the work of the Society of La Palapa, who were in charge of the paper to organize; which, in the same way, collect a work from each artist in order to be a fundraising reason; serving directly as a destination to La Palapa.

It can be assured that, in the Todos Santos Open Studio, for us artists at that time it was a space completely owned by the true part of us, I mean, our works accompanied us, and thus we made ourselves truly known.

On that occasion, I was an exhibitor, accompanied by other artists who were older by difference. However, I considered at that time to be a great opportunity to absorb greater wisdom from other artists, and it can be said that this objective was achieved.

In summary, a space for artistic expression or any opportunity to move forward and personal development, makes this invitation to which I was, as a student of the Palapa School; I personally received recognition for participating in this event, which reflects the support that the institution makes our talents known.
