Middle & Upper School Announcements
Mardi Gras (from the French, meaning literally "Fat Tuesday") originated as a final celebration of fun and indulgence before the commencement of Lent, the 40-day period which for many Christian denominations means prayer, penitence, and the foregoing of indulgences. Mardi Gras is celebrated around the world, in New Orleans, but also in South and Central America, the Caribbean, and Europe.
On
Tuesday, February 13th, during lunch, in the Atrium, Middle and Upper School students will also be celebrating Mardi Gras. They will have masks, colorful beads, festive music and a delicious King Cake! Eighth grade French students' Mardi Gras projects will be displayed as well.
