Wissahickon High School World Language Department

Wissahickon High School sponsors the following clubs which support the study of world languages.

Asian Studies Club - Sponsored by Mrs. Robin Harvey
Asian Studies Club is open to anyone who is interested in Asian cultures. In this club, we will learn the traditions and cultures of various Asian countries, as well as hold activities where we can try Asian food and get to know each other. Some of our events include a welcoming picnic, an annual Asian Studies Association dance, and a project to research countries.
Foreign Exchange Club - Sponsored by Mrs. Robin Harvey
The purpose of Foreign Exchange Club is to introduce Wissahickon students to diverse aspects of the world and expand their knowledge of unique cultures to a whole new level. There will be various events and social gatherings held by Foreign Exchange Club to bring foreign exchange students and students at Wissahickon High School closer. Not only will they have fun, they will also learn cultural values that cannot be taught otherwise. This club will serve as a bridge to connect and unify everyone.
