    FL:Immokalee students celebrate Mexican Independence Day

    Immokalee students celebrate Mexican Independence Day

    First-graders Jose Carranza, 8, center, Jonathan Hanleck, 6, left, and Fernanda Hernandez, 6, take part in the Mexican holiday celebration at the Immokalee Community School in Immokalee on Friday, Sept. 14, 2007.
    Students of Immokalee Community School, a charter school run by Redlands Christian Migrant Association, or RCMA, in Immokalee, are celebrating Mexico’s Independence Day today at school.

    Smiling, students rotated through four different stations learning about Mexico’s war for independence from Spain on Sept. 16.

    The day's celebration included learning about Mexico’s history, making "papel picado," to making piñatas and learning some Mexican cultural dancing.

    "I think, especially with our population, it’s important that they learn about our culture and history," Principal Pete Cade said

    The difference between an immigrant and an illegal alien is the equivalent of the difference between a burglar and a houseguest. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

    They confiscated 2 MILLION dollars so maybe they can use that to do something about our Ilegal Immigration problem.
