PARENT PLANNING GUIDE THURSDAY, JANUARY 23, 2014 8 a.m.-3 p.m.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A SAINT

WHAT IS ALL DAY @ ALL SAINTS’?

One day a year, we invite current and prospective All Saints' parents to experience a day in the life of a Saint. Plan your day for as much or as little as your schedule allows.

Our teachers are ready for you any time.

SHOULD I PARTICIPATE?

WHAT STEPS DO I NEED TO TAKE? STEP 1: Mark your calendar to be at All Saints’ on January 23.

“Last year was my first year to attend All Day @ All Saints’, and I was blown away by the depth of the classes in the Upper School (my favorite was Dr. Pointer's US History class). I've been so impressed by the All Saints' journey so far and now am even more excited for my daughter to experience Upper School.”

– Current Middle School Parent

STEP 2: Review the Planning Guide and plan your day.

STEP 3: RSVP online at www.asesftw.org/Admission or call 817.560.5746.

QUESTIONS?

“I went to several Admission events for All Saints' last year, but this one stood out. It was a chance to see the teachers engaging the students and explore the campus on our own time. I took a half day off work to attend, and I consider it a wise investment.”
