Congratulations to each of our performers, whose musical talent and hard work filled the auditorium at The College of New Jersey. We are so proud of all your accomplishments this year, and grateful to our wonderful piano teacher, Marjorie! πŸ’™

What a special day. πŸ’™

Our school-wide celebration brought together the PCDI community from across PCDI's Education and Adult programs, including many learners and staff members whose journeys at PCDI began with Joyce. The smiles, laughter (and tears!), and shared memories throughout the day were a beautiful reflection of the lasting relationships Joyce has built over her 42 years at PCDI.

Thank you, Joyce, and congratulations on your retirement!
