McNair Middle School held a schoolwide Multicultural Day, sponsored by the McNair PTO. Volunteers from the University of Arkansas and McNair parents shared presentations from their country of origin or a familiar country.
Students listened to presenters, snacked on authentic national foods, created a craft, and watched a movie to reinforce their day of learning.

Food was then prepared by staff using the new recipes, and staff members all sampled the food in a taste test.
