 First International Night at DHS!


A joint effort among multiple clubs produced an amazing event here 
at Duluth High School: the first... 
 International Night!
 It was a most enjoyable cultural celebration of countries and languages from all over the world, which included 15 performances of dancing, singing, and music. 
Over 200 attendees savored an immense variety of delicious food, including a 
crepe station, quesadilla station, and cuisine from nearly every continent!
Thank you to the National Honor Society who reached out to the French Club, Spanish Club, Junior Classical League/Latin Club, JUNTOS, Interact, Muslim Student Association, Key Club, and the DHS Step Team.  

The result was incredible teamwork from students who were excited and proud to show off their culture and talents. 

Looking forward to this event next year!
