Both middle school and high school students brought in an array of foods from different cultures for the international feast on Wednesday November 26th.

Students that contributed were given a mustache or a “hello” stamp that would later get them into the feast when their individual grades were called.

“I didn’t know what I should bring in at first but I ended up making corn souffle for the feast,” sixth grader David Montanez said.

All grades were called between fourth and sixth period for the feast. Sushi, pastas, bread, chicken, turkey and many other foods were featured in the feast. All students were able to enjoy foods from around the world while never leaving the school.

“The feast is one of my favorite events that happens in school throughout the year,” sophomore Norman Carmona said.
