Lithia Springs High School came together to celebrate what one student referred to as “the beauty of what makes us all unique” during the annual International Night at The Den celebration on Nov. 21. Students representing more than a dozen countries and continents from around the world dressed in traditional clothing and served up homemade food from their countries —everything from French quiche and macarons to Filipino lumpia and Indian samosa. “This is our heritage,” said LSHS French teacher Angelique Lekkou. After those attending the community event sampled delicious foods, the festivities moved to the auditorium where students produced a show that included fun trivia games, singing and dancing, a poem reading by the French Honor Society, a skit by the African Student Association and much more.
