Food Fair

An annual school tradition for over 40 years, Food Fair is a full-day celebration of our multi-cultural community that includes food stalls from many nations, games, musical entertainment, raffle, vendors and much more. We are proud to play host a wonderful, energetic crowd of attendees from our school community.

Organized by the PTSA, and supported by our sponsors, it is also the major fundraising event of the year, with proceeds helping to support a broad range of programs that significantly enhance the academic, service and social experience of our students. For more information, please see PTSA Grants page. Pictures of our past food fairs can be seen on YIS Photos.

This year's Food Fair will be held on Sunday, November 6, from 9:30 am - 3:30 pm on our Honmoku Campus.

We are looking forward to our first Food Fair on the Honmoku Campus, and the first one since 2019. It will be a pleasure to have our community enjoy this popular event together again.
