(North Bergen, NJ—February 14, 2017) Students from the French, Spanish, Japanese,
Italian, and German language classes at High Tech collaborated to decorate the resource
center for Valentine's Day festivities, announced Dr. Joseph Giammarella,
Principal of High Tech High School.
Each
language class chose a specific area to set up activities, exhibits, and food
stands. Between the empanadas in the Spanish Club corner to the sweet edibles
at the Japanese Club's table, a variety of ethical specialties proved plentiful.
“Everyone
enjoyed the charming Valentine’s cards written by Italian students,” says Dr.
Laje Gashi, Language Department Liaison and veteran French instructor, adding, “The
French Club’s signature crêpes, as always, was a hit.”
Instead
of traditional crêpes, however, students crafted pink crêpes in the spirit of
Valentine's Day, and became the subject of High Tech students’ snapchat stories.
The French Club also sold brownies and
small candy bags, each replete with a romantic French phrase on a handwritten card.
Every language booth attracted students by the throng throughout
the day.
