For National Foreign Language Week, Mar. 27-31, all foreign language classrooms participated in week-long festivities. These festivities included decorating the foreign language hall and classrooms, dancing to a particular country’s native dances, playing trivia games and other games native to different countries, and then finally having a food day on Friday. Students brought in different foods native to their assigned countries.

Sophomore Katie Thompson said, “For food day, I brought in medianoche Cuban sandwiches. There was a large variety of food brought in, and we all enjoyed snacking on the foods. This year’s National Foreign Language Week was definitively a big step up from last year’s.”

Sophomore Irene Song said, “I loved decorating the classroom with the other students. Our room looked like a big mess of white, red, and green colors.”
