International students attending George School come together each year to present a collection of performances which share elements of their cultures with the community. On Friday, January 13, 2012, students performed traditional and contemporary art forms ranging from a classic hat dance from Vietnam to hip-hop renditions of popular Asian music.

“The assembly is a wonderful celebration of the wide range of cultural traditions that these students bring to our community,” said Marion Wells, librarian and international student co-sponsor.

George School is committed to being a diverse community, with an international student population that typically includes about twenty percent of our total student body. George School has enrolled international students since 1905. Over the past decade, George School’s international students have come from more than seventy-five different countries, including places such as Afghanistan, Angola, China, Colombia, Cuba, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Thailand, Taiwan, Ukraine, and the West Bank.
