School Entry Protocols (Fall 2022)
We look forward to welcoming our esteemed alumni and their families to campus. Diocesan protocols require that each guest coming to campus:
- Enter through the main entrance (marked Door #1/Across from the flagpole/Holy Family statue along Little Falls Road)
- No entrances except the main entrance will be in use for this event
- Each visitor must check in with the event registration desk upon arrival
- Each visitor will be issued a nametag at check in - this nametag must be worn for the entirety of your visit
- Visitors are not permitted to explore the building on their own; all guests must be accompanied by a staff member at all times
- If a member of your party will be arriving late, please alert a staff member. Under no circumstances can exterior doors be propped open for late comers
Guests will join us beginning at 4:00 p.m. for an elegant cocktail reception in the newly renovated atrium at the entrance of the school. During the awards ceremony itself, families will be grouped together in assigned seating areas inside the auditorium. We anticipate concluding the event in two hours time, allowing enough time for families to enjoy a late dinner on their own.
