Last week after school, the school’s Global Community Club sponsored the annual International Food Festival, which attracted more than 100 students, faculty, and staff.

Club advisor Ruben Hernandez commended his students, led by senior Vaishari Parkash, for organizing an “outstanding event. What a variety of homemade delicacies are available! Co-advisors Tina Master and Mary Hoey are also thrilled with the students’ efforts.”

Parkash, who serves as president of the Global Community Club, was assisted by other members of the organization by displaying heaping trays of foods from China, Japan, Guatemala, India, the Philippines, Cuba, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Poland, and of course the USA.
