A Taste of the Outdoors

Students enjoying the new picnic tables.

        Along with the transition from winter to spring came an exciting new addition for our campus: picnic tables for the patio outside the Arts and Humanities Building. These stylish new tables are the perfect addition to our campus with the weather warming up and the sun starting to shine more brightly. Like senior Christina C. said, “Now, we can enjoy the beauty of our campus every day during lunch.” Indeed, the natural beauty of our school, which we are so fortunate to be exposed to, is now truly showcased by the addition of the tables.
        Donated by the graduating classes of 2011, 2012, and our current seniors, the Class of 2013, as well as the Parent Guild and the Alumnae Association, the tables are not only a way to display the natural beauty of our campus, but are also a unifying aspect here at NDA. We are reminded of the generosity of our past classes and of the special connection that we all share as sisters at this school.
        The tables are a feature to be enjoyed by all future NDA girls, and will continue to connect the past, present, and future of our school. As our principal, Mrs. J. remarked, “These tables build a stronger alumnae association. Each class has left a bit of themselves behind here, as a legacy for the school.”
