A new event, Traditions Around the World, was held Dec. 7 by the Bonner Springs High School Diversity Ambassadors.

This was the first event of its kind at Bonner Springs High School and was open to all USD 204 5th and 6th graders. Nearly 80 students from Clark Middle School, Bonner Springs Elementary, Delaware Ridge Elementary and Edwardsville Elementary participated.

Students rotated through different stations highlighting winter holiday celebrations around the world, specifically in eight other countries. The event was organized and led by high school students, and funded partially by a grant from the Bonner Springs-Edwardsville Education Foundation.
