Embracing Diversity

Jun 4, 2019 | Inclusive Excellence

A Diwali Extravaganza, recognizing the annual Indian “Festival of Lights,” was celebrated vividly this year on the D-E campus thanks to a collaborative effort between the D-E Parents’ Association, the South Asian and Indian Parents Affinity Group, and the Office of Equity and Diversity Engagement. Silberfein Gym was transformed with thousands of Diyas (traditional Diwali lights), delicious Indian delicacies, and plenty of rousing drumming and dancing. This new event for adults was a counterpart to the series of Diwali Appreciation Assembly programs in the Lower, Middle, and Upper Schools.
