Diversity Day @ Salina Intermediate<\/strong>.\u00a0 The description is written below by our Resource Teacher, Ms. Talukder:<\/p>\n

\u201cDiversity\u00a0Day at Salina Intermediate celebrates the richness and beauty of various cultures around the world. This celebration begins in our social studies classes. Students study religion in 7th\u00a0grade and global studies in 6th grade.\u00a0This event was born out of a culminating activity for our units of study, so it has a strong academic foundation. Students research and create project boards for religions\/countries and present them at the event. We also delve more deeply into the understanding of cultures by learning and performing songs,\u00a0traditional dances from India, Dominican Republic, Africa, the Levant (Syria, Lebanon, etc), Yemen and\u00a0American dances ( square dance \u00a0and urban). Students also enjoy creating various ethnic crafts. Religious and cultural artifacts are showcased and decorate the hallways, giving the school a museum feel. The whole community is invited and welcomed to join in the celebration of\u00a0diversity, and recognition that there is beauty to be found in all cultures. Students and staff dress in traditional cultural clothes that school day then attend the event after school. It\u2019s become a proud tradition at Salina Intermediate.\u201d<\/p>\n
