Celebrating our global community
ISA Culture Fair went virtual
MHS students come from more than 20 countries around the globe and love sharing parts of their culture with the community.
The annual Culture Fair, hosted by the International Student Alliance (ISA), provides an opportunity to do just that! An annual MHS favorite, the event offers a glimpse into the different cultures represented at MHS.
This 2020-21 Culture Fair— held virtually! — featured eight interactive workshops and several videos, which ran the gamut, from lessons on how to make an egg baked cake to a sampling of traditional LatinX dress.
Thank you to ISA and Ms. Kalischer for organizing this fun and educational programming!
