It was a lively Day of the Dead discovery day Tuesday as students from the secular Spark! Co-op North Idaho explored Día de los Muertos at the Human Rights Education Institute. Spark! students dressed in costume as they enjoyed cultural lessons about Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos, which is a Mexican holiday when families come together to honor the souls of their deceased loved ones and celebrate them with food, drink and offerings.
