International Day Pictures

Congratulation to the Saint James School 8th Grade class on the outstanding job they did hosting International Day on Friday.  International Day is an annual project for the 8th Graders, where they showcase their research on an assigned country.  Costumes, games, props, and traditional dishes are part of the festivities.  Students in all the other grades have an opportunity to visit the showcase throughout the day and the 8th Graders share information about their assigned country.
