Thank you to everyone who attended the third annual International Knight on Thursday, March 20! With students from around the world, Van Buren Local School District thrives on cultural richness and connection and takes pride in the resulting learning opportunities.
Our students from 41 countries were represented through posters, food, games, and performances to provide attendees with a glimpse into students' cultures. Attendees could also travel “around the world” collecting stamps from represented countries in their “passports” to gain not only a prize at the end (a globe stress ball) but also knowledge and insight from all of our students.
We also appreciate Mrs. Mackenzie Leonard, TESOL Program Coordinator, and all of the school staff and community members who came together to make this educational experience available to our community as events like this help us work toward our mission of building thinkers, connections, and experiences.
