Hispanic Heritage Month
Salem-Keizer Public Schools is committed to being a safe and welcoming district for all students, staff, families and community members. In Salem-Keizer schools, 46 percent of students and 14 percent of staff identify as Hispanic and/or Latino/a/x. Each year, SKPS observes National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15 by celebrating the contributions of Americans whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and South America. SKPS recognizes and honors Hispanic Heritage Month with a proclamation. Read the proclamation on the district website.
