Stanbridge Graduation is an event not to be missed! Because the San Mateo Performing Arts Center is being renovated, this year's graduation ceremony and reception will be held at Open Door in San Mateo, 4150 Piccadilly Lane, located between 41st and 42nd Avenues. Click here for map and directions.

On Friday, June 8th students are asked to arrive at Stanbridge at the regular time of 8:25 a.m. Students in grades K-8 are required to dress in their formal uniform, white polo with the Stanbridge logo and khaki or navy trousers or skirts. Students and their teachers will be transported by private buses to Open Door that morning. Students sit with their teachers and classmates during the ceremony. The graduation begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. and families of students in all grades are invited to attend.

A digital version of the Graduation Day permission form is now available to download on our Forms page.

During the graduation ceremony, additional awards are presented to students in grades K-12. Following the graduation ceremony, a reception will be held in the lobby area of Open Door. All students are to be picked up from Open Door by 12:15 p.m. There will be no return transportation to Stanbridge or train shuttle on this day.

This ceremony is the culmination of many years of hard work on the part of our students. Please join us as we celebrate their successes!
 
 
The second group of high school underclassmen will be going on their overnight experiential trip this week. If your student is scheduled for the May 15-18 kayak trip, please ensure he or she arrives to campus by 7:45 a.m. on Tuesday morning and brings a bag lunch. The group will depart promptly at 8:00 a.m.

If your student forgot any items on the packing list, please ensure he or she has them on Tuesday morning. A full packing list, along with details of the trip, can be found on our Forms page. The forecast looks to be a bit cooler this week, but there should be plenty of sun (and no rain!) to make this a fun trip!
