A HUGE THANK YOU TO M.J. 🫡
💙Michael Perry, affectionately known as M.J., has been at Dennison for 16 years. It brings him such joy when former students return, all grown up, to visit.
💙”They always share cherished memories from their time at Dennison, and I take pride in knowing I played a part in those experiences.
💙Whether we were playing football, basketball, wiffle ball, kickball, or simply sitting around talking about their day, those moments leave a lasting impact.
💙Now, the kids at Dennison today are enjoying those same activities, creating memories for yet another generation to treasure”. -M.J.

These lucky Dennison Kids are among the two dozen who recently received backpacks loaded with school supplies that were donated by Mark Johnson. Mark undertook this generous effort on his own initiative and received support from his family and friends. It's things like this that make Dennison a very special place for children who live in the south end of New Bedford.
On behalf of everyone at Dennison, Thank You, Mark.
Thank you South Coast Business Alliance!💙
Makayla and Navi were dominating the court last night! So proud of your effort and determination! Keep up the great work, girls!
Thank you Lex Barros for your continued support of our Dennison kids!🙏🏼

The DCR Summer Nights program was established in 2015 to give urban youth aged 13-21 the chance to participate in recreational and educational activities during the evenings.
Today, the kids at Dennison showcased their basketball skills during a thrilling 3v3 tournament, along with an arts and crafts contest. Paul Clifford, visiting from D.C.R, was thoroughly impressed!
