News from the Upper School
Happy Homecoming Week! What a spirited, energetic, and exhausting week this has been for the Upper School. Theme Days, the Red and White game, Hall Night, early morning today to get ready for the younger students to walk the halls, pep rally, games tonight, and concluding with our homecoming dance “A Night in Paris” tomorrow night from 8:00 - 10:00.
We hope you will join us at the games tonight to see the Homecoming Court, announcement of Homecoming Queen, and the anticipated results of the Hall, Banner, and Skit competitions.
We are so proud of all of our Upper School students this week. Homecoming Week is a lot of work, time, and effort to put together. The way they work together to plan and execute their ideas to engage our entire community is something that makes our Upper School community so special.
Enjoy some photos from today and all of the banners! There will be more to see from the week on Vidigami. Go check those out, too!
Have a great weekend and Go, Griffins!
Best,
Amanda & Jillian
