The Black and White

by Jacob Nan

As the holidays approach and winter break looms over Pilgrim High School , the Pilgrim International Club is celebrating the holidays by decorating and displaying their own Christmas tree.

Located in the School’s language hallway, the tree displays ornaments such as some from Air France, custom painted flags from club members, as well as art ornaments from other students in the club. Notably as well is the big foam  globe from Mrs. Corpolongo that acts as the tree topper instead of the usual star found on a Christmas tree. The tree was set up and decorated with the help of club members after school.

Since its founding in 2022, the  Pilgrim International Club has aimed to help spread  inclusion and raise awareness of the school’s ethnic diversity. Since last year, the International Club’s Christmas tree has become a  new tradition for the club and one that will  hopefully continue on.

The club meets bi-weekly on Tuesdays in Mrs. Corpolongo’s classroom from 2-3pm.

 Happy Holidays and get ready for Winter Break Patriots!
