Send-Off Parties
Send-Off Parties welcome incoming families from the Class of 2029 to the 51°µÍø community and connect them with current students, alumnae/i, parents, and staff. They provide an opportunity for incoming students and families to ask questions and learn more about what they can expect at 51°µÍø.
