Traditionally, the International Food and Fun Festival (IFFF) is an annual multicultural event and fundraiser that allows students and their families to sample foods from around the world, experience different cultures, learn about countries around the world, and become immersed in the sights and sounds of world music and dance! We encourage wearing clothing that expresses your heritage.
