Tag: Intercultural Week

The Intercultural Fair is a long-standing Poly tradition. The fair follows a week filled with dress up days and fun activities. This year’s theme is “Poly Meets World.” Activities Director My Nyoc Nguyen described the theme, “It’s appropriate because we’re talking about cultural appreciation, kind of like a world vision.”

Student clubs sell various cultural foods to represent the diversity of the world and this school. Some well known​ favorites include hots links from JROTC and cheesecake from Speech and Debate. Teacher Brett Alexander, supervisor of Speech and Debate explained the cheesecake tradition, “People like it, and I don’t have to fix it. Once you establish yourself, it’s something people get used to.”

In addition to food, the fair also involves entertainment on the Rally Stage. The lineup includes performances from Seoul of K-Pop, T-Lost, DJ ME, Theatre Arts, and Jazz I, as well as many other student entertainment groups.
