The DIS music and art department combined forces to celebrate a successful school year on May 30th with the middle and high school Spring Fine Arts Festival. Excited audiences packed the lively Jetnasium to enjoy a night of grand symphonies on the elevated stage and intricate student exhibitions. Much-missed DIS graduates made a surprise appearance at the event and caught up with peers and teachers alike. The art department’s annual fashion show, the Bloom, also returned with a brand new theme – eras of spring. Advisors Mr.Gum and Mr.Hutchings wrapped up the long night with tearful goodbyes to the 2024 seniors and applauded their hard work and diligence. Audiences returned home with fond memories to reminisce over the summer.
