And the winners are...

Feb 22, 2022

Every year, our Director of Education Warren Hoshizaki – also known by students in our schools as “Mr. H” – has always been impressed by how creative DSBN students are. And every year, we look forward to the Director’s Artisan Card Contest, where Director Hoshizaki challenges thousands of students to create cards that celebrate different months and days of the year. We were pleased to receive 400 SUBMISSIONS from students from everywhere in Niagara!
