Dear Kent Parents:

The Parents Committee invites you to participate in Spring Parents Weekend 2008. In addition to the special college guidance program for the parents of current 5th formers on Sunday, the School is hosting a History Department Symposium for all parents on Saturday. The college counselors will also be available to meet with Fifth Form parents throughout the weekend.

Please join me for what promises to be a fun-filled and informative weekend for parents and their children as members of the Kent School community.
