Dear Sidwell Friends School Parents,

This year’s unusually severe winter weather has left us, at this point, with a deficit of two days in the minimum number of required school days.

We will make-up these days by holding school on May 26, Memorial Day, and pushing back our end-of-year activities to gain one additional day of instruction for Pre-K through 11th grades.

Commencement for the 12th grade will take place as planned on Friday June 6 at 10:30am

8th grade closing ceremonies will be moved from the evening of Thursday June 5 to the evening of Friday June 6

4th grade closing ceremonies will be moved from the morning of Thursday June 5 to the morning of Friday June 6

Snow in late March is not unheard of in DC, so I must add that any additional missed days will be made up by adding snow-make-up days the week of June 9.

I know that any change in our schedule will inconvenience some. But I also know that we can rally to meet our obligation to make up for lost time and lost rhythm during these winter months.

Yours,

Tom Farquhar

Head of School
