Grandpersons Day Program Details

Hello SA Families,


Students are excited to share a variety of musical performances at our annual Grandpersons Day chapel on Friday, October 9! Our theme this year is “The SA Soda Shop,” a celebration of music from the 1950s. All students are asked to wear their dress uniform for this chapel.


Students will have fun props provided for each of their grade-level performances. They may also participate in the theme through optional extra accessories and hairstyles. Here are some fun ideas:


  • Black leather or pink ladies  “leather-style/letterman/bomber style” jackets
  • Bobby socks
  • Girls: high pony tails with curls; bows, ribbons
  • Boys: side parts, slicked back hair


We are looking forward to celebrating Grandpersons Day 2026 with all of you!


-Mrs. Sharp and Mrs. Shay
