We had over 100 people turn out for the International Potluck & Fashion Show! Many families from different backgrounds came to socialize and eat together. Highlands had over 15 countries represented.
The LGI became a tasting room where volunteers brought in food and beverages unique to their culture and background. Families brought dishes from Venezuela, India, Taiwan, Greece, Thailand, the USA, and more! Students performed a fashion show in their cultural, traditional attire.
The International Potluck & Fashion Show was such a wonderful celebration of diversity in our school community and it makes us bursting with joy In our hearts!
