Vestavia Hills City Schools

Join Vestavia Hills City Schools for performances, celebrations, and multicultural hospitality. Students and families plan to share their native culture in the parade of flags, performances, and the Festival Village.

The educational outreach extends beyond the cultural village, with 80 suitcase country lesson plans delivered to elementary schools. These interactive lessons provide students with a hands-on opportunity to explore different cultures, fostering curiosity and understanding.

Submit a recipe for the I am Vestavia Cookbook:

As part of this year’s I Am Vestavia Week, we’re excited to announce a special project — we’ll be creating a community cookbook. Anyone in our district is welcome to contribute by submitting a recipe from a different country. Ideally, the recipe will represent one of the many cultures within VHCS, but that’s not a requirement.

Please email the recipe to Lenhartfc@vhcs.us.  by January 8th. The cookbook will be free and available at the I am Vestavia Festival.
