News from Dynamic Design



Last Friday, Dynamic Design was pleased to host a panel of DD alumni to talk to our 7th and 8th graders about their transition to high school.  Our current Dynamic Design President, Brianna D., moderated the event.  The panel of freshmen (Tyler, Caleb, Matt, Matthew, Devan, Mary, Noah, and Avalon) answered questions such as, "What are some skills or habits you learned at City School that have helped you at BFA?", "What have you learned about yourself as a student since starting high school?" and "What message would you like to give current Designers to help them be the best students they can be and to prepare them for high school?"  Our panel did a great job and had some really insightful information and advice to share with our current students.  It was nice to hear about all of their successes so far, and we hope to see more of our former students in the future!
