My Project

This project will enhance the school-wide learning environment by showing that our student body comes from nations around the globe and that we are all valued and respected members of the school community. The flags will be hung in common areas on campus to highlight the multi-cultural and inclusive nature of the school and provide students a link to their country of origin.

Students will learn about the diversity in their community through this display and will be able to show pride in their cultural heritage.

Parents who attend meetings and conferences will also be able to recognize themselves as integral members of the community through the flag displays. These flags also represent linguistic diversity and our world languages department as well as the international travel club on campus that travels abroad every summer.

Mr. McConnell Felicitas & Gonzalo Mendez High School Grades 9-12
