Multicultural night

Families can explore country and culture booths featuring educational displays, photographs, flags, traditional clothing, artifacts, and interactive activities.  Some booths may also offer food samples. It's a wonderful opportunity to explore the world and learn about the cultures represented in our Cypress community!

All Cypress students and their families are welcome! You do not need to host a booth or participate in the Walk of Nations to attend. We encourage everyone to come explore and celebrate with us!

The Walk of Nations begins at 7:00 PM during Multicultural Night. All participating families should arrive by 6:45 PM to line up in the foyer. You will walk a designated path and cross the stage in the MPR.

Cultural attire is encouraged but not required! Wear traditional clothing or anything that represents your country or heritage, such as team jerseys, flag colors, hats, or other meaningful items.

A country sign will be provided for each group. When registering, families will be asked to provide a short description of their attire and its cultural significance. Our Master of Ceremonies will share these descriptions as each group is introduced and walks across the stage.

Get creative! Your booth can include maps, flags, photographs, artwork, books, traditional clothing, cultural artifacts, hands-on activities, games, crafts, or other educational displays. Food samples are also welcome!

The focus should be on sharing your culture in a respectful, educational, and engaging way.

Not at all! Families are encouraged to work together with other volunteers representing the same country or culture. You don't have to do it all yourself! Our Diversity Committee and the PTA are here to help coordinate and support participating families.

Once you sign up, all booth hosts will receive an email with the booth questionnaire. The questionnaire will ask about your setup needs, including tables, chairs, electrical outlets, wall placement, and trifold display boards. Each booth will have a table with a table cloth, chairs and a trifold provided. If you need help purchasing something for your display, the PTA has an event budget and may be able to assist with some expenses, reach out to inquire.  Trifolds can be picked up at the Front Office beginning January 5th.

Yes! Food and drink samples are one of our favorite ways to share cultural traditions. If your booth plans to offer food or drinks, you will be asked to identify the dish and provide allergen information. A provided allergen list must be completed and displayed at your booth on the evening of the event.

Absolutely! Cultural performances are welcome and must be limited to 5 minutes or less. Please include a description of your planned performance when completing the booth questionnaire so we can coordinate the schedule.
