The morning kicked off with a pizza party and resource fair. Students engaged in a hype hour hosted by Detroit's own DJBJ, Hopper, the Pistons Dancers and influencer @Itsmestewe before hearing words of encouragement from former NBA player Earl Cureton, Deputy Mayor Todd Bettison and Detroit City Council President Mary Sheffield. Next Emmy award winning journalist Orlando Bailey moderated a student panel and the inaugural DCAN Decision Day Awards ceremony, featuring virtual appearances by Detroit Promise scholars, took place. Topping off the day students got "Aktivated" by the special guest performer, Sada Baby.
