Dear Class of 2030 Families,

As we gear up for the start of your high school journey, Visitation School and Saint Thomas Academy invite all incoming ninth graders and their parents to our annual gathering. 

This special evening is designed to help students and parents build connections within their class and across our shared school communities before the first day of school.

Event Details:

Date: Monday, August 24
Time: 6 – 7:30 p.m.
Location: Saint Thomas Academy 

What to Expect:

• Parents (Holtz Gym): Enjoy appetizers and beverages while mingling with fellow ninth grade parents and class reps.
• Ninth graders (outside): Kick off the year with games, pizza and a special ninth grade class photo in the football stadium stands!

The next day, August 25, marks the official start of the school year, and there is no better way to set a positive, confident tone than by gathering together as a community. We can't wait to welcome you!

Please RSVP to help us ensure we have enough food, drinks, and fun prepared for everyone!

Sincerely,

Visitation School and Saint Thomas Academy Parents' Associations
