Dungeons & Dragons (aka D&D or DnD) is an immersive, tabletop role-playing game that utilizes theatre of the mind and collaborative storytelling to explore a larger-than-life fantasy world while navigating complex puzzles, overarching plot lines, and interesting social encounters. Players embark on epic quests, unearth untold treasures, and perform daring rescues in an effort to become heroes of the realm (and line their characters' pockets in the process), to accomplish a unified goal, advance their characters through the story, and earn rewards. Students will practice several social and academic skills, including math, social-emotional intelligence, and problem-solving skills. Will you rise to the challenge? All skill levels are welcome.

NCE begins immediately at the end of the school day. All students enrolled in an NCE class (including those in NEDP) will be dismissed from their classroom to the designated NCE waiting area, where they will be supervised by the NCE Onsite Coordinator until their NCE Class Instructor arrives. Students are welcome to have a nut-free snack during this time.

Pickup is promptly at 4:00pm. NEDP students will be escorted to NEDP at the end of their NCE class.
