Our school joins with our families to celebrate special holidays from their cultures. This month, all of our classes are learning about Ramadan through books, cooking, and art.

Ramadan is the month of fasting observed by Muslims around the world. It begins with the shining white crescent moon. The celebration lasts for a month, also known as “The Month of Mercy.” This is the holiest month for Muslims. A time of prayer, family, community, good deeds, and fasting from sunup to sundown. 

When the beautiful crescent moon returns, the Eid festival begins, marking the end of the fast.
