First held in 1975, International Day was created by the SMA Parents’ Guild (then called the Mothers’ Guild) to bring the community together in celebration of the rich cultural diversity of our families. Fifty years later, the event remains a cherished tradition that is filled with the vibrancy of many wonderful cultures, and continues to offer a meaningful opportunity to build community.
As partners in Catholic education, we are pleased to invite the students, families, staff and alumni of St. Paul’s High School to join us for this milestone celebration.
