The Fork Lane Elementary school community recently came together for an International Festival, bringing students, staff, and families together to celebrate cultures from around the globe.
Held on the school’s blacktop, the event transformed the space into a multicultural showcase. Attendees were invited to visit themed tables representing various countries, where they could sample traditional foods, explore customs, and learn about historical landmarks and languages. Students and families proudly displayed their heritage through
traditional attire, music, and décor. To enhance the experience, each student received a "passport" that was stamped at each country’s station, which included Poland, Italy, India, Ireland, Puerto Rico, and many more.
Aside from a wonderful afternoon celebrating community, this first-time event gave students the opportunity to learn about traditions from other cultures, historical landmarks around the world and different languages.
