¡FELIZ DÉCIMO DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS!
In the tenth year of this anticipated annual tradition, the Middle School student-led Day of the Dead fiesta turned the Great Hall and Library into a corner of Mexico on Friday afternoon.

Student Holiday on MondayNo classes will be held on Monday, November 6 as it is Teacher Conference day. Note: As there is no adult supervision in the library or on the playground, we ask that Lower School children who are accompanying their parents at conference time wait quietly in the hallway outside the classroom.
