During International Week, Shorewood Hills Elementary School hosts its annual performance and parade. This enormously popular event spotlights the cultural and national diversity among our students. There are two shows: a morning event during the school day for students and staff, and an evening event for family and friends. Each show starts with the parade, immediately followed by the performance. Children may participate in either or both the parade and performance, or as a student announcer during the shows.
