Upper School Parent Newsletter | 03-13-26
March 13th, 2026
Dear Upper School Families,
It was a pleasure to see so many of you at our Knights Under the Stars Gala this past Saturday. Thank you for the incredible support you show our school; the energy in the room was a testament to the strength and vitality of this community, and I am looking forward to working with the winners of our Upper School auction items. Today, we are busy on campus with LAUNCH -- I encourage you to ask your students what they learned from our presenters!
We've got a few noteworthy days coming up:
Sunday, March 15: College Fair (Sophomores and Juniors)
Monday, March 16: No Classes (Faculty/Staff Professional Development Day)
Wednesday, March 18: Quarter 3 Grades published in PowerSchool
Wednesday, March 25: Upper School Testing Day & Senior Symposium
- 9th and 10th Grades: Students will take the PSAT in the morning. Upon completion, they will return to their regular class rotations.
- 11th and 12th Grades: Students will participate in the Senior Symposium, led by our English Department, before returning to their regular rotations for the afternoon.
I will be sending two additional emails later today:
- Junior parents: Look for an email containing links to photos from our recent Ring Day celebration.
- Senior parents: Look for an email regarding important reminders for our upcoming end-of-year events for our soon-to-be graduates.
Thank you for your continued partnership.
- Dan Binder, Head of Upper School
