Dear Brent students, parents and guardians,
Greetings from your Magic Mountain! We hope that you, your family, and your community are safe and well.
The faculty and staff are ready and excited for this school year, and we are looking forward to welcoming you to our Open House Day and orientation sessions for parents/guardians and students on Wednesday, August 9, 2023.
We understand that some parents/guardians might not be available for these orientation sessions, so we will be sharing the presentation slides via email after the sessions are done. We will also be having Lower School, Middle and Upper School Tea parties this month for faculty and parents/guardians “meet-and-greet” afternoons.
Please note the schedule below. More updates and important dates will also be included on our website very soon.
