Lower School Families,

We are excited to welcome you back to campus next week!  As we prepare for a fantastic start to the school year, here are a few important Orientation and First Day of School details to remember.

Please complete the Authorized Adults form by Thursday, August 6th. This informs us who may (or may not) pick up your child from school. The link is on our website under Lower School Resources.

If you have not completed all Magnus forms, please make sure those are completed by Thursday, August 6th.  

Registration for Quarter 1 clubs is open. Club registration for the quarter will close on Friday, August 7th at 5:00 pm. Please review the club brochure to sign up for clubs. Quarter 1 clubs will begin on Monday, August 17th. 

Lower School Picture Day is Tuesday, August 11.  You may complete this order form and return it to your child's homeroom teacher or order online by clicking here.

5th Grade Sweatshirt Ceremony is Friday, August 21st at 1:00 pm in the Chapel. This special chapel service is for 5th grade parents and your 5th grade student. In this service, students will receive their “Class of 2034” sweatshirt and begin to understand the significance of being a member of a Class. A reception will be held following the service.  If you haven't already done so, please complete this form so we can order the correct size sweatshirt for your child.

We look forward to seeing everyone and beginning another wonderful year of learning, growth, and community together.

See you soon!
