Our Inaugural Cultural Diversity Fair, originally scheduled for April 26th, was cancelled. However, we are still celebrating D95's rich diversity, and thank all the AWESOME D95 teachers, staff, administrators and essential workers at the same time. Check out this video to does just that!
We had some great booths and cultural performers lined up for our Inaugural Cultural Diversity Fair. Click HERE to see some performances that we can look forward to at our event next year! Date TBD.
D95 Gives Back Initiative
