Grandparents Day
SJS Grandparents’ Day is Friday, September 20th, beginning at 10:00am in the gym.
This event is open to all students in the school. If grandparents are unavailable for any reason, students are welcome to invite a special visitor (aunt, uncle, parent, godparent, special family friend, etc.) as a substitute.
It is not required that students have a grandparent/special visitor at school that day.
SCHEDULE:
9:45am: Gates closest to the church will open
10:00 – 10:30am: Gym Gathering for welcome, prayer, and entertainment
10:30 – 10:45am: Classroom Visits
10:45am – 12:30pm: Picnic lunch, pictures, and Scholastics Book Fair gift cards
VISITOR INFORMATION:
· Grandparents/Special Visitors are asked to park in the new church parking lot. They do not have to sign in at the office. The gates by the church will be open for visitors to get on campus. However, guests will not be allowed on campus until 9:45am.
Grandparents/Special Visitors meet in the gym at 10:00am.
· AFTER the welcome ceremony in the gym, Grandparents/Special Visitors go to the classroom or the designated area to pick up the student(s).
· ONE designated person (with their photo ID) is to check out the student from the homeroom teacher. They are, at that point, responsible for the student. No student will be allowed to check out to a person who has not been designated by the parent on the form. The permission slip form is on the following page.
There will be multiple picture stations around campus for students to take a complimentary picture with their grandparents.
A table will be set up to purchase gift certificates for our upcoming Book Fair. Cash or check will be accepted.
We will have multiple areas for grandparents to picnic with their grandchildren. Feel free to bring “picnic supplies” such as blankets, chairs, basket/tote, etc. to picnic anywhere on the school grounds. Tables and chairs will be set up.
