Multicultural Week

    Multicultural week is a yearly tradition in our school, which helps share the cultures of the world with the rest of that school for one week. People dress up in traditional clothing, and during lunchtime from Monday through Thursday, they serve traditional foods at the Horseshoe parking lot whenever the weather is fine, except once or twice last year, when it was raining, they had the food stands all over the quad and the area between the gym and locker rooms. On Fridays, they have an assembly, in which, people perform in different groups to do different traditional performances that match those from other countries all over the world. This typically happens in April usually before spring break ever happens, but this year, since spring break was on the first week of April, they had multicultural week the week after spring break. Because of all this, the five days in multicultural week do not follow the normal, typical daily school bell schedule. The periods are typically shorter, except on Friday, third period is longer, because that is when the assembly happens, but there is no read on either of these days, and from Monday through Friday, the break is one minute shorter. However, it is a pretty fun week, and the food they serve may be slightly overpriced, but at least they taste pretty good. This year, however, instead of paying cash directly to the stands, they make us exchange one buck per ticket, and pay using those tickets.
