The Four-Year Senior Dinner celebrates seniors who have spent all four years at The Frederick Gunn School.

The Alumni Association Induction Dinner is a celebratory meal at which the graduating class will receive their senior mugs and be inducted into the Alumni Association. On this special occasion, it is a tradition for seniors to receive letters and notes of congratulations from their families, called “senior letters.” 

Please join us for a special reception celebrating parents of alumni and families of graduating seniors. The parent reception will start at 4:30 p.m. on the Thomas S. Perakos Arts and Community Center Terrace. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served. Please note this is an adults-only reception, and students should not attend.

Parking will be available on campus for those wishing to attend Saturday’s events.  Accessible parking will be available in front of the Thomas S. Perakos Arts and Community Center and Edward Wersebe Memorial Field. Please refer to our campus map for additional details.

Formal photography will be provided during the weekend, including pictures of each senior receiving their diploma, as well as a formal Senior Class portrait. All photos will be posted in a private, online gallery on Highpoint’s website, 2-3 weeks after Commencement and we will send families information by email about how to purchase photos.

Parents and friends wishing to stay overnight who have not yet made reservations should do so immediately. Options for accommodations and dining are available on our website.
