Grandparents and Special Friends Day

Respect and love of family are among the many values we hold dear at The Frances Xavier Warde School. FXW Grandparents near and far are very involved whether its through volunteering, attending our Grandparent’s Day celebration, serving on the Grandparent’s Committee or just staying in touch through our e-newsletter.

Each November, we host more than 500 loving grandparents of children in our preschool through third grades. Every classroom has a special presentation for the grandparents and special friends, and we hold a Mass of Thanksgiving. In 2010 Fr. Hurley encouraged everyone to “give the best of their faith, whether it is Catholic or Protestant or Jewish or Muslim – lean into these children with the best of your faith and your traditions.”
