Highland Elementary School hosted its Multicultural Festival this month where students, staff, and families celebrated the various cultures represented in the school. It was a multicultural potluck, multicultural trivia, with an exciting live performance from the Philadelphia Capoeira Arts Center that combined dance, music, gymnastics, and the Portuguese language in a unique Brazilian art form. Cultures were represented through interactive exhibits, many delicious food samples, festive attire, traditional games and music, and live performances. The Multicultural Festival attracted many students and families, sharing great feelings of pride, community, making a difference in the lives of others, and better understanding of the cultures that make up the Highland community.
