The silent auction is open, and the bidding has started!  Did you know you didn't need a passport to travel to St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands?  Start planning your summer vacation now and dream of white sand beaches and crystal-clear water.  More of a snow person?  We have you covered with getaways to Flathead Lake, Montana and Snowmass, Colorado.  Even if you prefer the increasingly popular staycation, you can be a tourist in your own town with a stay at The Golden Hotel or The Eddy, or even from your own home with a dazzling photograph of places near and far.  

Remember to download the Handbid app on your phone and register as a bidder to win in the silent auction.  This is also a fun way for family members far away, or those who can't physically make it to the event to participate.  See you on the bidding floor or in the bidding war!

This concert will feature our High School Band, Orchestra, and Choirs performing chamber music and large group masterworks as well as a variety of Jazz and Broadway favorites.

The Ides is one day per month, falling on the traditional Roman day of the 13th or 15th, that allows for a school reset, a return to order, and a reiteration of expectations. Grammar School students gather in the gym for a morning assembly, clean/tidy desk and room, and have a manners-focused lunch in line. Upper School students clean out and organize their lockers during study hall, under the supervision of the study hall teacher, and may wear House polos for points.
