James Buchanan ES students had a chance to celebrate diversity near the end of the school year by participating in a Sports Fest that featured games indigenous to other cultures. Field hockey (Scotland), lacrosse (Native American), hurling (Ireland) and cricket (India) were featured as students learned from participants who play each. Guidance counselor Maryann Kearns said she hoped the elementary students would "learn about other cultures and develop respect for each by participating in the not so well known and unique athletics." Third and fourth graders participated as fifth grade videographers recorded the event for a later presentation.
