All students are welcome to join Pershing’s International Club!
Our first monthly meeting will be Friday, September 27, 2019 in Mrs. Hoey’s Room 233, 8:00-8:25. This year we have plans to raise funds to collaborate with the ESL Dept. and help host the International Thanksgiving Feast. Other planned activities are to invite our Pershing community to share their cultural heritage with our club.
We look forward to meeting you soon!
