🎉🇵🇷 Today’s Hispanic Heritage Month spotlight from the Multicultural Club comes from Lynette Williams, freshman from Haverhill!
“Today we are highlighting the territory of Puerto Rico! Fun fact: Puerto Rico is the original place of reggaeton music, a genre that combines reggae, hip-hop, and Latin rhythms. Worldwide star singers like Daddy Yankee and Bad Bunny started here. I hope you all take the time to learn about Puerto Rico and celebrate its culture with joy. Together let’s show that same joy as Whittier wildcats. Gracias, y ¡Viva Puerto Rico!. Once again We are Whittier Tech!”
