Upper School Reading and Tea Party August 25

After the success of last year’s Jane Austen Tea Party, Upper School students are invited to a High Tea to discuss our two Summer Reading Club books on Sunday, August 25, from 2:00-3:30 in the UAC Commons. Our books this year are Charlotte Bronte’s classic, Jane Eyre, and Cormac McCarthy’s post-apocalyptic novel, The Road. (Note, The Road is a bleak but rewarding read. Some Aggies give it rave reviews, but more sensitive readers might want to stick to the Bronte.) Read one or both books—there’s just one party—and rest assured that the menu and décor will reflect the Bronte more than the McCarthy 🙂.

It’s not too late to join in—just email Dr. Pawl and read one or both books on your own time.  RSVP here (you can sign up to bring a treat to share, but that’s certainly not required.) We would be delighted to have some parent volunteers to serve the day of the event. Email Dr. Pawl with questions.

Fall Sports Practices Begin Today
