PAGHIDAET: A TRIBAL TRIBUTE TO NATURE
La Paz National High School
The first performing tribe sets the bar with a high-octane performance that celebrates the profound connection between the community and the sacred Tree of Life.
Revered for its life-giving and life-sustaining power, this ancient symbol represents the community's deep-rooted relationship with nature and the cycle of life, as well as our unwavering faith.
