Culture For the

On April 8, West High’s annual Walk it Out performed another dazzling multicultural fashion show in the North Band Room. This year’s performance attracted an excited crowd as students graced the stage wearing their cultural clothing and showcasing a variety of talents. “It’s a representation of what makes West High such a special school,” Krisha Kapoor ‘23 said. “A lot of students from different countries, backgrounds and experiences [come] together to show off their culture and everything that they want to embrace.” Kapoor headed this year’s show along with seniors Heidi Du, Mohana Sunkara and Maya Chu. “I think that everyone really enjoys all the food and the performances… I think it’s one of the biggest, most fun events of the year,” Chu said. From rhythmic Irish dancing, iconic K-pop choreography and highly energetic Bollywood performances, to captivating Japanese singing, the well-known Quinceañera and traditional Sudanese dances, the students of West came together to produce a show-stopping celebration. “I just hope it keeps getting more and more participants every year,” Sunkara said. “I think the underclassmen are gonna do a great job with it.”
