Our Kindergartners stepped straight out of the ordinary and into a world stitched together by story, scent, color, and imagination.

Our annual Multicultural Feast is the grand finale of a semester spent traveling—Appalachia to China, India to England, Egypt to the Nile’s edge—without ever leaving the classroom. With the magic of our parent community, the room was transformed: fabrics, textures, handmade details… a little portal to everywhere at once.

We welcomed @atellingexperience who spun tales that made the whole room lean in. Then our students made candles, sculpted with salt clay, and-because every great celebration ends at the table-shared a feast cooked and baked with love from home kitchens across our community.

It was one of those days that reminds you why we do this: when learning becomes lived, when culture becomes connection, when five and six-year-olds show us how wide the world really is. Here’s a glimpse into the magic.

Our kindergartners brought ancient mythology to life last week with their classroom play, Nuwa and the Broken Sky. As part of their unit on China, students explored stories that have been told for thousands of years — learning how myths help people make sense of the world, celebrate creativity, and connect across cultures.
