The ABC's of Honduras: C is for...

Catracho
The word "catracho" refers to a person native to Honduras.  One thing I have noticed about Honduras is how much pride they have for their culture.  In fact, The entire month of July is dedicated to national identity.  A heavy emphasis on culture is placed in the schools. In order to  graduate from 6th grade, students must pass a series of tests including reciting numerous pledges and prayers, and directing the national anthem.  Honduras has shown me what it means to be proud of your roots.
