LISD students gather to enjoy plenty of food and music at Saint Peters Plaza this morning.
For 17 years the Vidal M. Trevino Magnet School has taken time to highlight its student's talent through a Hispanic Heritage Festival.
Students helped remember inspirational Hispanics like Celia Cruz and staff cooked up traditional foods to go along with the dancing.
“It’s nice for students to embrace culture and come out and showcase talent that we have.” Blas Martinez told Pro 8 News.
City officials and community members were also invited to join in on the celebration.
