Middle School Students Learn About Vietnamese Culture & History
Our middle school students heard from Mr. Long Hoang Le last week as he shared his story as a childhood refugee from Vietnam. He also shared how the country has grown and changed over the years, and what the geographical and cultural landscape is like today. Students learned about the three distinct regions of Vietnam, why yellow is significant to the country’s history, and why Vietnamese people first introduce themselves with their surname.
