The O'Neal Annual Heritage Festival

Join us in planning for the best festival yet!

The O'Neal Annual Heritage Festival is scheduled for Wednesday, April 17th from 5-7pm in the Hannah Center Gymnasium.

More than a dozen countries/heritages are represented as O'Neal families and Upper School student organizations join to showcase many cultures by way of activities, information and/or food. The whole school community is invited to attend and bring their friends!

Lower School students are issued a "passport" as they enter the festival. They can get their passport "stamped"  at each booth by participating in an activity or answering questions about the culture. When they've visited all of the booths and their passport is full, they can go to the refreshment stand for prize. 

A slide show of the photography entries for the O'Neal Earth Day photography contest is shown, a photo booth is available as well as other displays of classroom projects that have focused on learning one's heritage.  This year there will be some musical performances as well. 

If you would like to help with the planning and organization of the festival or if you and your family would like to showcase your heritage at the event, please contact Kathy Taylor, director of communications.
