Diwali

Let's Celebrate Diwali!

One of the great things about living in Mountain House, and going to school here Lammersville Unified School District is the fact that our community is so diverse.  Because we live in such a diverse community, we have the opportunity to celebrate the many diverse holidays that our students and their families celebrate.  The next holiday that is coming up is Diwali.  Diwali is also known as the "festival of lights" and is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated in autumn every year.  This holiday is traditionally a Hindu holiday that signifies the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, and hope over despair.  Diwali is a major national holiday in India, and many of our students and their families celebrate this holiday here in Mountain House.  This year, Diwali is on Thursday October 23rd.  
Mountain House High School would also LOVE to celebrate Diwali by decorating our lobby with festive Diwali decorations.  If you are interested in helping us to celebrate Diwali we would love to decorate our High School Lobby area with Diwali decorations.  If you are interested in helping us to decorate please CLICK HERE and fill out the form to volunteer to decorate.
