“Not only do we celebrate it but DPWMD is something practiced around the whole world,” senior performer Darren Reyes said. “I really like how that’s a connection between people.”

Students, staff and parents were welcomed to attend the performance on Oct. 28, which celebrates the late journalist Daniel Pearl’s love for music and arts.

With a list of 15 songs to perform like “I Just Want To Celebrate,” “La Bamba” and “Dancing Queen,” the Daniel Pearl Magnet High School band

‘In Bloom’ and choir blended with the crowd who sang alongside them.

“When I started, (DPWMD) was more about spreading peace, love and all that,” senior keyboardist and singer Jason Echeverría said. “Now, we’re starting to convert it more into partying and celebrating.”

With the room filled with nostalgia and applause, the musicians look back on all their performances and friendships with their arms hung over each others’ shoulders. These are bonds that many performers will cherish undoubtedly.

“Unforgettable,” senior ukulelist and singer Andi Mendoza said.

Senior Ashiq Siddiqui “I think my last World Music was really nice and a great way to exit because we had such a great experience and everyone was in line with what we were doing. I'm going to miss the experience of World Music. I’m going to miss the drama and all the behind the scenes.

Senior Tylin Jarrett "I’m going to miss the positivity that comes with the show, like the energy that you get from performing with the group. My favorite part of World Music Day would be the ending to the event and hearing that the audience really enjoyed it. They all seemed very happy and that was our goal for this World Music Day."

Taking two months to plan and coordinate, leadership, Associated Student Body (ASB), and Rodriguez’s first and second periods helped make the event a way for students to learn about Latino culture, family traditions and beliefs.

Walking out toward The Grove on Nov. 1, the students and fourth-graders from Lake Balboa College Prep Magnet School were welcomed with a variety of booths such as a Loteria station, a temporary tattoo station, word searches, ring toss, bowling and a

“Well last year, I did it because it was part of the cultural lesson and I just thought it would be educational for the entire community to take it outside,” Rodriguez said.

“It's just something small but it's something meaningful. In the end, it brought the whole school together and creates more of that community slash family environment that Daniel Pearl is constantly striving for,” senior ASB president Bianca Lam said.

coloring station. ASB also gave the option of purchasing a tamal for $2.50 or purchasing a tamale and a champurrado for $3.50. In addition, parents donated pan de muerto, which was being given out for free.

“I think my favorite part was when a lot of people came into the middle and danced 'El Caballo Dorado',” Lam said. “I liked seeing all the elementary kids too, I thought that was really adorable.”

“I don’t really eat but when I do, I really like those pupusas,” sophomore Diego Hernandez said.
