Boulder celebrates this heritage with events like Latin poetry festivals and Hispanic appreciation months at some of the city’s schools. Local facilities also appreciate this culture. For example, area libraries offer access to various Web sites relating to Latino and Hispanic culture, using the Andanzas al Web Latino program. The Boulder Valley School District also offers Latin Parent School Involvement Program to help these families to make these families for more welcome within the schools.
