Spirit Week Kick-Off: Valentine’s Day at DVD

Greetings Designers and Design Families,

DVD was feeling the love yesterday as we kicked off Spirit Week! As each Da Vinci Design student came up the stairs yesterday, they were handed a fresh flower by one of our Leadership students or a faculty administrator. And after that, our Seniors had the opportunity to celebrate their recent win in a grade-level design challenge with some shaved ice as they heard some important Senior announcements. Check out some of the photos below!

We wanted to extend a special thank you to Conroy’s Flowers Redondo Beach for being such an excellent partner for our morning flower event, providing DVD with an assortment of hundreds of beautiful, fresh cut flowers. Thank you Conroy’s!

And, we wanted to extend another thank you to Ray Houser of Philly Gourmet Ice (IG: @phillygourmetice) for providing delicious Italian shaved ice for all of our Seniors. Thank you Philly Gourmet Ice!

And finally, events like this are made possible thanks to our extended Da Vinci Design community for supporting our school with donations so that we can host fun events like these! If you or someone you know would like to make a contribution to Da Vinci Design, you may do so at our giving website here and select “Da Vinci Design”.
