D.A. parents enjoyed a beautiful evening, a great view, and the perfect opportunity to simply be together at this year's Parents Night Out, held on the D.A. rooftop.

The Sept. 10 event, hosted by the Dominican Academy Parents Association (D.A.P.A.), was a casual chance to catch up with old friends, meet new ones, connect with DAPA volunteers and leadership, and kick off the school year together.

Look for more events hosted by D.A.P.A., with a schedule to follow.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to the DAPA volunteers who helped make the evening such a welcoming start to the year. We’re glad you’re part of the D.A. community.

Four D.A. Tigers joined students from Dominican schools across New York and New Jersey for the regional Dominican High School Preaching Conference—a week of prayer, reflection, connection, and discovery that lets students experience the mission of the Dominican order firsthand.

Seniors Giada B., Sophia M., Ysabela S., and Nora W. learned about the unique ways Dominicans have preached the Gospel message for over 800 years, examined the origins and mission of the Dominican order, and took part in sessions that explored preaching in art, music, dance, and drama.

The conference, held in Ossining, NY, emphasized that students aren’t simply here to inherit the Dominican mission. Instead, they are empowered to have a role in shaping what that tradition looks like in their own community in their own ways.

"The conference was a wonderful and eye-opening experience for all involved," Giada, Sophia, Ysabela, and Nora shared. "It pushed us outside our comfort zones and also really helped us understand our roles as members of Dominican Academy Preachers (DAPs)."

D.A. is grateful to Ms. Gibilaro, Director of Campus Ministry, for accompanying our students on this journey—and proud of our Tigers for bringing the Dominican spirit with them and back home to D.A.

On the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, today’s orientation sessions at Dominican Academy included a prayer remembering all those who lost their lives that day, as well as those who have since died from illnesses resulting from its aftermath.

A Litany of Remembrance included the names of parents, relatives, friends, and loved ones who continue to be mourned by our community—including D.A. alumna Danielle Delie, ’72, a founding member of the Dominican Academy Alumnae Board, who is remembered by her classmates for her kindness and generosity.

May we continue to remember, to pray, and to care for one another.
