Some celebrate Christmas while others celebrate Hanukah; some eat macaroni and cheese for dinner while others eat rice and soup; some speak English at home while others speak Spanish. Each of us has a different cultural background, yet all are Ames families. During this winter break, we hope that you spend some quality time with your family and friends, talking about your cultural background and family origin. Let yourself be enchanted by the treasured stories of your family’s history and culture. Our 2nd Annual Family Heritage Night will be coming up on Tuesday February 7th. This night is a great opportunity for sharing your family’s countries of origin and sharing tales of adventure and travel. Based on the stories and research during this winter vacation, we hope you can collect enough information to make a flag or posters, and perhaps bring samples of a food or beverage from your heritage to share on Family Heritage Night. We hope to see you all on February 7th. For more information please see the links below.
