Second- and third-grade students at Hawaii Preparatory Academy will present “We Come From Everywhere” at 2 p.m. today. The musical performance, which is free and open to the public, will be held at the school’s Gates Performing Arts Center in Waimea.

“We Come From Everywhere” celebrates the diverse origins of Americans — from American Indians to immigrants from all over the world. The students are learning about immigration and how their families found their way to Hawaii. Some of the students’ stories will be intertwined into the musical.

This is the second of a series of musical productions by HPA’s lower school students. The kindergarten and first grade classes will present the next show Feb. 5.
