PRAIRIE CULTURAL FAIR

A Fun Family Event – Calling ALL PARENTS!

On the evening of Fri., Mar. 16th, we will be having a fun family event for all showcasing the many cultures represented in our school community. We hope to encourage our students to learn about other cultures, to celebrate what makes us all unique, and to recognize cultural traits that we share. We cannot do this without your support and are looking for parents who would like to share artifacts and traditions from around the globe with our students and families. You can partner with a friend or family member or do your own thing! Parents who are interested can share about holidays, traditions, clothing, games/toys, geographical location and landmarks, music, art, food, etc. We are so excited for this event! We hope that you will consider sharing with our school community. We would love to learn from you! If you would be interested in participating, please CLICK HERE to complete this brief survey.
