1. Our Global Diversity Fair is just a few weeks away! Mark your calendar for Thursday, January 26, 2023 from 5:00-7:00 pm here at Field School. The Global Diversity Fair will feature booths and performances that represent a culture, country or region. This event relies on the diverse experiences and backgrounds of our WPS community, and the booths are the heart of our Global Diversity Fair!  We are seeking members of the Field, Country and Woodland School communities to volunteer to host booths and/or perform or coordinate a performance. It’s not too late to sign up via our Sign Up Genius HERE. We ask that all sign-ups are in by this Friday, January 6. You might also consider partnering with other members of the various school communities with whom you share a culture to host a booth together. Please reach out to us and Event Chair, Catalina Salebe, at cataocamposalebe@gmail.com with questions. There will be a second informational Zoom on Monday, January 9 for those hosting a booth at 8:30am, where we can answer any questions you might have about participating and go over event instructions. Zoom information forthcoming!
