CD Parent Social

11/3/2014

We hosted our biannual parent social this October. It was an immense success! We hosted over 65 guests. Our parents brought loads of food. The students socialized and enjoyed themselves. Additionally, the students got to show off their Anti-Bullying Pumpkins to their parents. It was a wonderful night. We are grateful for all the support from our families, students, and CD staff members. Special thanks to our social sponsors, Mrs. Kellermann and Mrs. Granato-Wager.

Happy Halloween
