Over 90 grandparents and special friends flocked to The Saklan School in Moraga April 21 to experience what their grandchildren love about Saklan. The morning started with refreshments and a welcome from Head of School David O'Connell. Grandparents then visited their grandchildren's classrooms, where they participated in morning meeting activities, created art projects, talked about family history, compared experiences from long ago and today, and shared in the joy of learning their grandchildren experience at The Saklan School each day.

The Saklan School was excited to bring back the tradition of holding a Grandfriends' Day each year, following a pause due to the pandemic. The event is a celebration of family and community, whose commitment and connection are hallmarks of The Saklan School and central to its mission of student-centered, hands-on education.
