Salvete Omnes,
As we approach the end of academy, I wanted to post a reminder about our last two days. The play performance will take place on Saturday, July 16 at 2:00 pm in Blackwell Auditorium, where the opening ceremony was held. Following the play, there will be a reception and a display of some of the projects the students have been creating from 3-4 pm in Birdsong Cafe in Brock Commons. Students and staff will be leaving promptly at 4 to prepare for the final banquet. We ask that no parents come to the dorms at this time. Check-out begins on Sunday, July 17 at 8:30 am in Andrews Hall and needs to be completed by 10:00 am. After all belongings have been removed from the room, a staff member must inspect the room and sign-off on it before you can turn in your fob. We are providing a continental breakfast for students in the dorm that morning. If you want to bring additional food for your family to enjoy together in the dorm after check-out, feel free. Students should not leave Andrews until it is time for us to proceed together as an academy to the closing ceremony. At 10:20, families should vacate the dorm and go to Blackwell Auditorium to await the closing ceremony. Finally, students may not have cell phones in the dorm during check-out or prior to the closing ceremony. Please remember that this is a dismissal offense even in the last hour of the program. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you, Jacquelyn Wilkins GLA Director MMXVI
