Grandparents Day is Next Friday! | | |
Grandparents Day is Fri., Oct. 12. We look forward to seeing grandparents and special friends during this wonderful event. Please check with them to ensure that they have responded to our invitation. This enables us to assign a volunteer and have a schedule ready for them. If you have questions or need to register a grandparent or special friend, please email Maria Granquist in the Development Office or call 203-777-3464 and ask for Maria.
We are asking that parents (other than volunteers) refrain from visiting campus that morning to ensure that parking is available for all who need it. Thank you!
