Connect Academy celebrates International Night

On Thursday, May 25th, Connect Academy’s Race & Equity Committee hosted “International Night”!

International Night celebrated and exposed our youngest KIPPsters to cultures from around the world. They even received their very own passport, for which they were able to collect stamps by visiting the booths representing different countries. KIPPsters were able to try the nations traditional foods, music, and literature. Many countries were represented:

  • Cuba
  • Thailand
  • Germany
  • Jamaica
  • The United Arab Emirates
  • Nigeria
  • Bhutan
  • Mexico
  • Ghana

Huge thanks to the staff and parents of Connect Academy for putting on such a fun and educational global learning experience for our KIPPsters.
