Students who are learning English as a new language are accomplishing an impressive feat. So last month, West Hempstead took a moment to celebrate the progress and achievements these students have made throughout the school year.
The event brought together both middle and high school English as a New Language, or ENL, students in the high school’s gymnasium. The students were tasked with bringing in native dishes to create a buffet. The varied cuisine featured traditional foods from all over the globe, including China, Colombia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, India, Pakistan, Russia and Taiwan.
