2023-2024 Multicultural Calendar

National PTA's Multicultural Calendar highlights a diverse range of holidays, traditions and celebrations that may be observed in your community. We encourage PTA leaders to use this resource to be mindful of holidays when scheduling programming, to learn more about holidays celebrated in different cultures and to begin conversations in your community! For additional guidance around diversity, equity and inclusion, explore National PTA's Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and the related Local Leader Guidance. National PTA's DEI Community Profile Template can also help you reflect on the identities represented in your community and how you can more effectively engage underrepresented families.

National PTA's podcast can be a great way to start conversations about diversity, equity and inclusion. Explore our DEI podcast episode playlist. For even more resources, visit DEI
