At Mission San Jose High, we devote a week to celebrating the cultures of the world. For the first four days of Multicultural Week, different foods are available at stands in the horseshoe. Students can buy chow mein, samosas, popcorn chicken, burgers, burritos, tea, and so much more.
Besides the food, many students also get excited about the school assembly on Fridays. Students themselves perform for their peers, whether it's Bollywood dancing, taekwondo, ballet, tinikling, or something else. On Thursday night, all of the groups meet at the gym for one last run-through before the big day. Nobody is seated in the audience, but the vibe created by the students and leadership crew feels so real.
Friday has come, and all the performers are anxious to begin. They wait in the gym quad and sneak peeks at the performances prior to their own. They are full in our costume and makeup and are ready to run onto the dance floor. They all spent countless hours preparing for the next five minutes of their lives.
