IMPORTANT EVENT INFORMATION
Parking: We will have golf cart assistance to and from the Student Center to make travel easier for those who need it. ADA-accessible parking will be available in The Commons parking lot, located off Welaunee Blvd.
 
Parent Attendance: Grandpeople’s Day is a special opportunity to celebrate the grandparents and special grandpeople in our students’ lives! We are blessed to have unbelievable attendance and to ensure adequate seating, we kindly ask that, if at all possible, parents reserve attendance for grandparents and special grandpeople. We certainly understand that some students may not have a grandparent or special grandperson available to join them, and parents are welcome to attend in those circumstances. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us make this a special day for our students and their Grandpeople!
