WJPS’s 13th international feast took place on November 22nd, bringing together its current students and graduates from previous years. Students entered the auditorium which had been converted into a cultural buffet for the event. 

The administration’s choice to return the inclusion of hot food in the event, as well as the arrival of the WJPS alumni, brought back the full tradition of the event for the entire school community. 

WJPS alumni, Crystal Ian stated, “I feel like it’s always nice coming back and very nostalgic. I don’t plan on ever stopping this tradition and it’s very nice to be reliving these memories.” 

WJPS alumni, Gabriela Casabianca said, “It’s an amazing feeling being able to connect with everybody again and seeing the familiar people and having the love of all the teachers. I love having a connection with them because it shows how much they appreciate me and love me.”

WJPS senior, Cameron Henrich added, “I think the feast was good, it was nice to hang out with friends and not be stressed about school.”
