Grandparents & Special Friends Day | Friday, May 16
We love to host our students’ grandparents and special friends! Typically less than half of our students bring a special friend, so this should not be a point of stress if you don’t have family in town! Please click here to get your family and friends on our mailing list, and email Lindsay Francescutti if you have questions.
Spring Benefit | Saturday, May 17
The Spring Benefit is our school’s biggest event! It features an impressive musical performance by the school’s adult and student choir and orchestra, delicious food and drinks, and a fabulous, huge auction. Parents are involved in many ways at this event. In addition to attending and enjoying the party, parents sing in the choir, donate goods and services to the auction, serve on committees to collect donations for the auction, decorate, and help with planning and hosting the event. There are many ways to be involved and we welcome your participation!
All School Picnic at Shelburne Beach | Thursday, June 12 from noon to 5:00 pm
