WHS Spanish Club students had a fantastic day at the ASU Museum! They participated in a scavenger hunt and got hands-on in the Tinker Shop, where they created flying objects, moving pictures, and even buildings.
Afterward, the group enjoyed a visit to Los Arcos, where students had the opportunity to try new foods and do a little shopping.
Great job Warrior for Westside so well and making the most of a fun and educational experience! ❤️🤍
