Highlights from D-E 360° ACE Discovery Day to NYBG Train Show! 

Dec 9, 2024 | D-E 360 ̊, Recent News

Dozens of excited Lower School students recently enjoyed a field trip to the New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) for the Annual Train Show! This annual D-E 360° ACE (AfterCare & Enrichment) Discovery Day is a D-Elightful tradition – and what an amazing trip it was! 

Our students loved experiencing the NYBG ‘hands-on’, learning about trains and also evergreens, wetlands, and more! During the field trip they graciously shared warm weather apparel with each other as well as their stories – about home and homelands, siblings and friends and traditions that are meaningful. 

CHEERS to everyone who made this NYBG field trip possible, including the phenomenal D-E 360° ACE Team!
