Indian Village Elementary will celebrate diversity during Mix it Up during lunch periods Tuesday, Oct. 30, from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Principal Stephany Bourne will talk to students about the wall that separate students in rigid social groups during Mix It Up Day. Students will be given a colored piece of paper as they enter the cafeteria, they will then find a table with a placemat that matches their color and will sit at that table. This is to encourage students to socialize and meet new friends and playmates.
