Salvete Parentes!
This letter contains important information about your arrival at Randolph-Macon College on Sunday, July 16, 2017 to pick up your student from the Governor's Latin Academy.  Here is the schedule:
  • Arrive between 8:30 and 10:00 am
  • Come to Andrews Dorm (#61 on the map)
  • Pack up room
  • Load car in Lot I and then move it across the road
  • Find a staff member to inspect the room and sign your student’s door sign
  • Take door sign to Dr. Natoli in the lobby to check-out
  • You may take your student to breakfast (or bring it with you), but they need to be dropped off in MPR by 10:20 for the Closing Ceremony
  • Attend Closing Ceremony in Blackwell Auditorium at 10:30 am (#16 on the map)

Please do your best to adhere to the above schedule. If something happens on the drive down, please call me at
8044961589.
Remember that students should not be in possession of cell phones until after the Closing Ceremony.  If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Finally, I hope to see you at the play tomorrow in Blackwell Auditorium and at the reception afterwards.
Cura ut valeas,
Jacquelyn Wilkins
Princeps, GLA MMXVII
