✨Yesterday’s Lunar New Year celebrations!✨
Lunar New Year at FAA was more than just a celebration – it was a chance for our students to immerse themselves in traditions, learn something new, and share meaningful moments together. 🎇🏮
From crafting lanterns and writing their names in Cantonese to decorating their classrooms and dressing in red for good luck, they embraced the spirit of the holiday. One of our students, Alina, even shared her family’s traditions with her classmates, bringing traditional food and leading a special
presentation. 🇨🇳🧧
These experiences help our students see the world through different perspectives, fostering curiosity, understanding, and a sense of global community.🌏

Today, as we commemorate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we reflect on the legacy of a leader who championed equality, justice, and unity.
Dr. King`s vision of a better, more inclusive future continues to inspire us to act with kindness, courage, and purpose. Last Friday, we had the privilege of celebrating his life and work with our community, families, and students. Together, we engaged in meaningful activities that honored his ideals and reminded us of the power of collective action.
Stay tuned for more updates from community day as we share highlights from this memorable day! 📸
Let us all carry forward Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.`s dream and work towards a world filled with hope and opportunity for everyone. 🌍💛
