Young Alumni Return to Campus to Discuss Life After D-E
Earlier this winter, the School hosted a “Life After D-E” Young Alumni Panel Discussion in Hajjar Auditorium, during which graduates of the Classes of 2021-2025 shared with us how D-E has impacted their lives in college and beyond. As articulated by these young alumni, our Upper School students have opportunities to explore their passions and choose their own path as they move into the world. To read their reflections on what sets D-E apart from other schools and why they will always have a home, a community, at Dwight-Englewood, click the link in our bio!
