SPARTAN Life

Grand Day

Our campus community was thrilled to celebrate Grand Day on March 24, 2023. The intention of this yearly event is to welcome grandparents and guests to The Hill to honor the special bond our students have with their grandparent(s). Hundreds of grandparents traveled short and long distances — some trekked thousands of miles — to be on campus. Grands had a chance to experience a day in the life of their grandchild, visiting classrooms, actively participating in classroom activities, eating meals in the dining hall and attending chapel. While in chapel, grands were treated to special performances by the St. Stephen's Madrigals, the Middle School choir and the Upper School orchestra. Grandparents also had a chance to visit and shop a special book fair in the Becker Library.

Thanks to our amazing St. Stephen’s alumni staff and each and every volunteer — Grand Day 2023 was a huge success!

Appreciation for Our Parent Volunteers

The St. Stephen’s Parents’ Association (PA) plays a vital role in the school community, helping to sustain the school’s mission through a wide array of volunteer activities during each school year.

In addition to raising critical funds for the record-breaking Annual Fund, PA volunteers also serve as gradelevel class representatives; student and faculty appreciation lunch hosts; coordinators for parent coffees, socials and important annual school events; book special guest speakers; and serve as key communicators, informing our parent community about campus events. This group of dedicated volunteers also support the school by serving on the board of trustees and as members of the booster club, fine arts club, DEI committee and care committee, to name a few. The PA’s generous and dedicated spirit has enhanced all aspects of campus life throughout the 2022-23 school year and beyond. We are very appreciative of each volunteer’s time, talents and support! Thank you for playing such an integral role in our community!
