A Tradition Filled with Color (iro 色)

As part of their curriculum in Japanese Culture, Rye third graders take part in a festive celebration. The children learn calligraphy, play traditional games, and sample Japanese foods, all while wearing authentic kimonos. Milton and Osborn schools held their 17^th annual events last month and Midland is scheduled to celebrate theirs in the spring.
