This year's Ethnic Week features talented students displaying arts and dances of various cultures including Japanese, Filipino, Korean, and Polynesian. Throughout the week, lunch hour activities included fan making, Filipino tinikling dancing (bamboo poles), Japanese sing-a-longs, Korean songs and videos, and topped of with a May Day Program to be featured in a separate entry. This is a chance for various cultures to share their activities with the rest of the student body. Next year, we hope to have even more variety!
