Friday November 8, 2024
9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

"Hawk for a Day" sessions provide an immersive opportunity for boys (in current grades 1 through 7) to spend time with teachers and classmates and experience the community that makes Princeton Academy of the Sacred Heart unique.

Concurrently, parents will have the opportunity to tour the school, meet faculty, parents and administrators, and hear from the founding Head of School, Olen Kalkus, about "Why All Boys." Olen will explore the growing body of research showing that boys learn and develop differently from girls and that single-gender programs are more educationally effective for boys than co-educational programs.

You’re invited to an evening of eighteenth century music and dance with the Historical Society of Princeton and Morven Museum & Garden.

Located directly across from Nassau Hall, the tavern was leased by William Whitehead from Morven’s Richard Stockton.

Light refreshments, including coffee and tea, will be served prior to the performance, which will begin at 7:00 p.m. Program tickets include access to visit Morven’s newest exhibition, Morven Revealed: Untold Stories from New Jersey’s Most Historic Home, from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. prior to the concert.
