Come join us to celebrate Greece. So many things to do and see! You’re going to have a great time listening to students sing, watching student plays, seeing students in authentic Greek clothing while performing Greek dances, taking a step inside our Plaka, and tasting authentic Greek food! You will also have the opportunity to support the Greek Department of the school by buying beautiful handmade student items.
In celebration,
