Clinton School students will participate in the Arkansas Council of International Visitors Citizen Diplomacy Summit this weekend in Little Rock.
The event will feature a “Parade of Nations,” in which the school’s international students and those who are American citizens but were born in other nations will carry the flags of their native countries. Some American students will carry the flags of a classmate’s home country or of countries where they completed their international projects.
The parade will be 4:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday through the Clinton Presidential Park beginning where President Clinton Avenue crosses under Interstate 30 and ending in front of the Clinton Center. Local dignitaries, Clinton Center volunteers and others will greet the parade marchers.
