School Life
Social Events
Social events are an essential part of our program. In other words, we make time for play. Outings, get-togethers, dances, barbeques, impromptu gatherings and a range of other social events take place during school time throughout the year.

Mountain Day
This long-standing tradition surprises students and faculty with a day-long adventure off campus in lieu of a regular academic school day. Historically planned by student leaders, this day can include hiking, picnics, beach sessions, ice skating, and even scavenger hunts. -
Murder Mystery Dessert
Hilarity ensues as faculty perform an original murder mystery playscript on campus, followed by dessert and dancing. Previous titles include "The Science Fair (of Death)" and "BOYEEEE: A Search for America’s Next Top Boyband." -
Lip Sync Competition
Students and faculty rehearse and perform in a concert-style Lip Sync Competition to a sold out Kemper Theatre audience, showcasing creativity, dancing, and camaraderie in the Upper School for Girls. -
Casino Night
Casino Night is the Upper School’s homecoming equivalent. Faculty convert the Great Hall into a Casino and host a semi-formal evening of Blackjack, Texas Hold-Em, and Roulette. Students use their chip “winnings” to bid on prizes such as limo rides, concert tickets and air hockey sets. -
Fright Night Haunted House & Dance
Upper School Students design and deliver a Haunted House experience for all high-school aged guests to experience as part of the fall dance. -
Prom
Our most conventional social event is designed by members of the Junior Class in honor of the Seniors, taking place at a special off campus venue each Spring.
