Inside: Printable Hispanic Heritage Month coloring pages to download for all grade levels!

Each year the United States recognizes Hispanic Heritage Month (or Latino Heritage month) through a variety of events and programs. It’s a special time to honor the contributions of Latino or Hispanic individuals in the United States.

Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.

The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15th and ending on October 15th. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402.
