## Caption

In honor of DJDS’s 50th anniversary, we’re throwing it ALL the way back...

Between now and our Annual Dinner & 50th Anniversary Celebration on March 10, each Thursday we’ll be sharing photos from across the decades. Thanks to an incredible partnership with the Beck Archives at DU, who digitized thousands of analog images and video, we are sharing Chanukkah celebrations, school plays, Purim, science fairs, classrooms and Color Wars from the past 50 years .

Let’s just say our campus, Craig and Jerry's hair, and our style choices all  look a little different these days.

These throwbacks are a chance to reflect on 50 years of DJDS—how far we’ve come, how much has changed, and what’s stayed at the heart of our community all along.

Bonus points if you can spot and identify alumni, former faculty, and staff in the photos, many of whom have children who are current students. Extra bonus points if you tag them.

Let the memories (and guesses) begin.
