General Guidelines
- Each student may have two guests. One guest must be an adult, but the other may be a sibling. Siblings must be able to remain quietly in their seats for the entire duration of the program (about 25 minutes). Therefore, it is not advisable to bring younger siblings to the ceremony.
- Student dress for K-7: Long pants and collared dress shirt, tie, skirt and blouse, pants and blouse, or dress.
- Masks are required for all guests and students. We are aware that the CDC is amending indoor mask usage guidelines for those that are vaccinated, however, we intend to finish this 2020-21 school year adhering to our mandated mask protocols.
- There will be staff to direct parents to parking.
- Parents who are attending more than one ceremony in a day may wait in the upper tent near the new Assembly Hall site where coffee will be served.
- There is limited turnaround time between ceremonies, and there is limited parking as well, so parents are asked to leave campus directly after their child’s program. Should the parents wish to gather, gathering off-campus is appreciated.
- Morning Gym will be open on Monday and Tuesday, June 7 & 8 (conducted outside) beginning at 7:15 a.m. Drop off is as usual at the Gym.
- All K-5 students report to their usual carpool drop-off point to be met and taken to the classroom prior to their ceremony. Grades 6-7 should report to the Great Hall.
- Note: K-7 report cards will be mailed to all families in mid-June.
