We’re thrilled to announce that our beloved Grandparents Luncheon is evolving into an even more meaningful celebration this year! On Friday, March 7, 2025, CAIS will host our first-ever Grandparents and Special Friends Day on our new campus.
Of course, grandparents are still invited to enjoy the Mass Greeting performance in January and will have reserved VIP seating. Grandparents and Special Friends Day will offer a memorable experience that celebrates the invaluable role they play in our student’s lives and the CAIS community. During their visit, grandparents and special friends will spend a morning experiencing life as our students do—joining them in classroom activities, meeting their teachers, and enjoying a special performance.
