In a wonderful twist, Upper School students were addressed by nationally renowned tap dance, Andrew Nemr for the annual Black History Month assembly. The assembly contextualized black history as American History. Sharing that black history has relevance to everyone, Nemr built on the theme by performing tap dance routines. He surprised the audience when he collaborated on an impromptu jazz piece with D-E's own Daryl Johns '14. Here's a clip of the performance which they entitled This Is Jazz - This Is America.
Congratulations to Olivia Britton '14 and Taryn Daniels '13 for organizing a memorable assembly.
