Miramonte students Jarret Zundel and Nicole Guo volunteered in San Francisco's annual Chinese New Year parade held Feb. 4. The event, which included lion dancing and band marching, featured several student volunteers from Miramonte High School. The procession is the largest Chinese New Year parade outside Asia, occurring yearly at the end of the Lunar New Year's month-long celebration. Depending on moon cycles, the Lunar New Year begins a set of 12 years that, in Asian mythology, corresponds with animal icons, with 2023 the Year of the Rabbit.
