On Friday, September 19, our MPR transformed into a full-on fiesta for Lotería de Noche (BINGO Night).Families arrived in their ropas más festivas, pre-ordered burritos, chips, and paletas 🍧, and settled in for lively rounds of ¡Lotería!Our amazing 5th graders called out the winning symbols in Spanish, showcasing their extensive vocabulary. 
Every table featured mini-displays about Spanish-speaking countries, turning dinner and game night into a meaningful learning experience for all ages. Winners were treated to grab bags packed with fun surprises.
Lotería de Noche created so many wonderful memories for our families.
Our chairperson, Mayra Martinez,  wove learning into every detail of the event, pictured here with Dr. Judith Dauman.Muchísimas gracias to 5th grade teacher Crystal Ortiz for preparing her students, 4th grade parent Joanna Urbina for opening the event by teaching a song in Spanish, and Alison Bacalia, our Family Engagement coordinator.
We appreciate all our volunteers and staff who made the MPR sparkle with color and community spirit.
Gracias, Ventana Vista families—juntos podemos. 💙
