DÃa de los Muertos (Day of the Dead)
Day of the Dead actually celebrates life and the life of the loved ones that have passed.Traditional dishes and a special bread is made to commemorate the life of our loved ones. The Day of the Dead is a holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, though other days, such as October 31 or November 6, may be included depending on the locality. It is widely observed in Mexico, where it largely developed, and is also observed in other places, especially by people of Mexican heritage.
Headwaters School respects the diverse religious and cultural observances within our community. In alignment with our handbook policies, students will not be penalized academically, socially, or athletically for missing school due to the conscientious observance of a religious holiday. Absences will be excused with prior notice to the Attendance Office, and students may make up any missed work, tests, or assignments without penalty. Faculty use a Religious Holidays calendar when planning major events, and the school strives to avoid scheduling required activities on widely observed religious holidays. Please see the handbook for more details for your program.
