The community of Trenton Catholic Academy, Hamilton’s Upper School, gathered for an assembly which highlighted the Latino heritage and the contributions that Latinos have added to the American culture. Some 30 Latino students led the event which included a parade of the “quinceanera” celebrants and their escorts. As young women celebrate their 15th birthday, they are ‘presented’ to friends and family in traditional dress during a religious ceremony. Eight TCA students will turn 15 this year. The students also dedicated the assembly to John Shaffer, the school’s late marketing director, who died Oct. 23. Photo courtesy of Trenton Catholic Academy
