Multiple schools across the Diocese of Immigrants are marking Catholic Schools Week by highlighting diversity.
At Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Ozone Park, Tuesday, Jan. 30, was International Day.
Every class in the Queens school studied a country of their choice, learning and displaying every aspect of that culture through art, dancing, food, and more.
Students grabbed their passports and took a journey around the world, on Tuesday, starting with pre-K, where one classroom turned into Italy, and going all the way to eighth grade, where one class celebrated India.
Students told Currents News they were happy to learn about the different cultures.
Parents were also invited to the school to see the students’ projects.
Be sure to stay with Currents News and The Tablet for continuing coverage of Catholic schools week.
