Multicultural Week - Important Info (Deadline Extended)
We are very hopeful that our Silver City families will consider submitting a video documenting a country representing their cultural background and sharing the unique heritage of their family with the entire Silver City community.
The deadline for submitting a video is this Wednesday, May 12, so there is still time! Once we have cultures represented through video presentations, we will share links out to the school to celebrate during Multicultural Week - May 17-21 - which culminates with World Day for Cultural Diversity on Friday, May 21.
We are also collecting photos and recipes, which you can email directly to: KAtolli@forsyth.k12.ga.us
We would like to encourage all Silver City families to participate in this wonderful event to help us be more aware of the cultures and ethnic diversity that make up our amazing school and greater community, while also learning about and celebrating our diversity.
