  • Mr. Boville’s Headmaster Talk.
  • Teacher presentations covering this year’s classroom highlights and educational expectations.
  • Time to visit our updated South wing, including Motor Lab, Embers Town, and Atrium.
Please note that this is a parent-only event.

Spirit Day is Headed Our Way!
Friday, September 12th will be our first monthly Virtue Assembly and Spirit Day of the year. On these days, students have the option to wear an Embers spirit wear item and casual bottoms instead of their uniform! Spirit wear is available from our online spirit store.

2025 Spirit Shirt Order
This year, we will be offering a spirit shirt bulk order.  These shirts will be billed to your Blackbaud Tuition Management Account and delivered to your students in October, before the second Virtue Assembly. As a reminder, students may wear any Embers spirit item on our Spirit Day!
