Uniform Colors
BLUE! Why blue? Laura G. Rodriguez liked blue so we honor her with wearing that color. It's a soothing and calm color. We like it ourselves! It also goes with the theme of our mascot, The Sharks. Blue being the ocean where sharks explore and live.
KHAKI! It represents the color of our skin and its a grounding color. We are all human and in learning about Sra. Laura, we learn the being civic minded is a way to help and shape a culture, a community and humanity.
