Every year the Hispanic community celebrates the May 5 or Cinco de Mayo to commemorate the Mexican victory over France in the Battle of Puebla. Spanish classes at McIntosh celebrated with music and games.

Freshman Truitt Thompson said, “I had a fun time watching the videos about the history of the holiday, and I was excited to learn the facts about the culture.”
