HCES students took their “grandpeople” on a trip around the world on Tuesday, November 22nd at the annual Grandpeople’s Day. Over 500 grandpeople joined their grandchildren for a morning of performances and time in the classroom. 

After a lively music program full of traditional songs from across the globe, grandpeople were invited back to the classrooms to visit. Three separate sessions for different grade levels invited them for time with their students. Grandpeople in the 1st two sessions listened to the wonderful music performed by grades PK-1st and 2nd - 5th grade students. Middle school students invited their grandpeople to a traditional chapel program with a special performance by the Middle School guitar class.

Grandpeople’s Day, a long standing Holy Comforter tradition, is held each year on the Tuesday before the Thanksgiving holidays. A grandperson may be a grandparent, aunt, uncle, friend or any special person. We give special thanks for all of our grandpeople!
