Please note: Our Playgarden classes – Rosebud and Bluebell – will not be participating in the classroom visit portion of the day as these events can be difficult for the very young children. The Rosebud and Bluebell students will be ready to greet any special visitors at their 12pm dismissal time!
Friends and Family Day Schedule
Kindergarten and Grade School Visitor Arrival is at 9:20
Please park in the upper parking lot as the lower lot is reserved for anyone with mobility challenges. There will be check-ins in both locations where you will receive your event program and support to find your student’s classroom. Please be sure to check in even if you know where you are going!
Kindergarten and Grade School
Classroom Observation and Activities begin at 9:30. Your student’s teacher will welcome you to the classroom to experience a morning in the life of a Waldorf student!
Reception in the Music and Arts Room
At 10am, guests can proceed to the Music and Arts Room for a reception (those with mobility challenges are encouraged to drive up and use the handicap parking spaces). During the reception, you will hear from our School Director and see current student work from each grade, and have first dibs on our holiday school store!
The Friends and Family Assembly begins at 11am
The assembly will be held in the open air pavilion, so we encourage you to dress warmly
Dismissal for the long weekend
12pm for Early Childhood and
12:30 for Grade School
The event concludes at 12pm. Students will return to their classrooms for a regular half-day dismissal. Early Childhood students will be dismissed at noon and Grades 1-8 will be dismissed at 12:30pm in the carline. We recommend that anyone who is not picking up a Grade School student leave promptly at noon to avoid having to wait in the carline for dismissal!
