Dear NDB,

Thank you for your opportunities. You give students a place to try new things, explore their interests, and find their passions. Whenever we walk through the door, we know we will be faced with new challenges. And even though it may be hard, we know you will always be there to help us overcome them. Thank you for the chances you give us to become the best versions of ourselves.

Love,

Dear NDB,

When I first stepped foot on campus, I immediately knew you were the place for me. I felt so welcomed and seen even just as a newcomer.

Thank you for providing so many opportunities for me and to help me truly discover myself in a time of uncertainty and growth. Between leadership opportunities, various classes to help spark my interests, and the warm and welcoming staff and teachers I’ve benefited greatly from all you have to offer.

Love,

Dear NDB,

You have been my home for the past two years,
A home where I have felt welcomed.
A home where I have made some of my closest friends.
A home where I have discovered more about myself.
You are not recognized as much as you should be. But the loving and safe environment you have provided me has helped me to appreciate and endear the little things in life. Thank you for everything.

Love,

Bella Svanberg ‘25
