What is Multicultural Night?
Multicultural Night was once a cherished annual tradition at our school, and we are excited to bring it back! This special evening offers families, staff, and students a chance to celebrate the many cultures that make up our school community.

Through food, displays, performances, activities, and conversations, we will learn about one another's traditions, customs, and experiences while building connections and strengthening our community as we close out the school year.

We invite you to sign up via the provided link to host a cultural table. You may host a table on your own or partner with another family or co-worker. Share your heritage, a country that is meaningful to you, or a culture you would like others to learn about.

If you are unable to host a table but would still like to contribute, we welcome donations of food, cultural items, or your time. Closer to the date, Donations may be dropped off at either campus and should be labeled "Multicultural Night."

Students under 17 must be accompanied by an adult.

Questions, comments, or volunteer inquiries may be directed to:

How exciting for our longtime Henderson Family, the Maynards! They are the parents of three children who attended or attend the school. They have been a family of consistency at the school, having matriculated from early childhood thru graduation! We can't wait for the opening! The Henderson staff has witnessed this business grow from the start! :)
