On Friday, December 11, we will be hosting our second class social of the year by having a 10th Grade Pajama-Movie Night at 9:00 p.m. The boys varsity hockey team has a game at our rink at 7:00 p.m. After the game, there will be a student-selected movie showing in the Dodge Room of the Reed Campus Center at 9:00 p.m. We will provide fun snacks and warm drinks during the evening. Day students are welcome to stay overnight in the dorm room of a sophomore of the same sex, but students and families need to make these arrangements in advance.
For those day students electing to sleep over, boys will sleep in boys’ dorms and girls will sleep in girls’ dorms. There is no cost to stay over for this special night. Students will need to bring a pillow and a sleeping bag or blanket. We will provide a mattress. Students are expected to plan ahead and fulfill their Saturday commitments as necessary. For planning purposes, please have the overnight permission form that you received in by the end of the school day on Tuesday, December 8.
If day students want to enjoy the fun of the evening but not sleep over, no permission form is required. They can be picked up by 10:55 p.m. on Friday at the Reed Campus Center. Thanks to the Class of 2018 Student Council for leading the way in organizing this event.
Feel free to email me with any questions you have. We are looking forward to another great night!
