Last Wednesday, 82nd Street Academics at Ren 2 hosted a beautiful end-of-year celebration that brought together students, families, and staff to honor the growth, achievements, and community spirit built throughout the school year.

​

The evening began with the rich aromas of multicultural dishes generously prepared by families—each one a delicious reflection of the diverse cultures that make up our Ren 2 community. As laughter and conversation filled the room, the atmosphere quickly transformed into one of shared joy and connection.

​

A highlight of the evening was the dance floor, where students, siblings, parents, and educators came together for an energetic night of music and movement. From classic hits to cultural favorites, every song added to the vibrant tapestry of the celebration.

​

The event also featured a heartfelt awards ceremony recognizing the hard work and accomplishments of students in the after-school program. Cheers, applause, and proud smiles filled the room as each honoree was acknowledged.

It was a night that captured the essence of what makes Ren 2 so special collaboration, appreciation, and a deep sense of belonging.
