King's Celebrates the World

King’s celebrated International Day with 28 countries and ethnic groups participating on Friday, November 14. The program included a parade, food fair, and dance competition. More than 30 students participated in organizing the event: making posters, coordinating costumes, ordering or cooking food, choreographing dances, and cleaning up. Over 200 students stayed on campus to enjoy the festivities and welcomed family and friends to join. The program had to shift due to the dramatic arrival of the first rain of the season, but the sun returned in time for the dance competition and a successful end to the day.

The four student heads of International Day were Khader Jaarah '26, Tawfiq Khoury '26, Aisha Zaki '27, and Marah Mu’men '27. Marah Mu’men said, “This event is of the utmost importance as it encompasses the diversity in our community and represents the beauty and uniqueness that everyone brings to our school. But above all, it's a time where students can enjoy themselves, and be proud of their cultures.”
