"Year of..." Highlights

Cornerstone's "Year of..." cultural studies are designed to give students an in-depth, immersive experience while learning about a country or region around the world. Each year, a new country is chosen, and students learn about the history, geography, and heritage of that country through projects, assemblies, speakers, and events. Hands-on activities include learning some of the language, tasting the food, and practicing some of the dances from different regions every year.

Recent "Year Of..." cultural studies included the following:

  • Year of Nigeria

  • Year of Cuba

  • Year of Japan

  • Year of the Pacific Islands
