Dismissal for Thanksgiving Break
Our final day of classes on campus is Friday, November 20. This will be a full day of classes, and all students are expected to fulfill all obligations that day.
IIIrd and VIth form students will depart campus after classes and before 8 p.m. on Friday, November 20.
IVth and Vth form students will depart campus by noon on Saturday, November 21.
We are encouraging a staggered departure in order to reduce traffic and density on campus. If there is a specific reason your child must be picked up on Friday or stay over into Saturday, regardless of their form, we are happy to work with you and make an exception to the scheduled departure times.
Parents will not be allowed in the dorms to help their child pack; however, students will be given plenty of time to pack up their belongings during their last week on campus leading up to break.
Two adults are allowed at pickup. Please stay outside, masked, and socially distanced from other families and Millbrook faculty and staff. Please coordinate the pickup time with your child in order to expedite the process and depart campus as soon as the car is packed up.
Packing
Our hope is that students will return to Millbrook’s campus for semester two, but please understand that a return to in-person learning remains uncertain due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Your child should pack with this understanding in mind.
Equally important, they should bring with them all their books and materials needed for remote learning.
Transportation
If your child needs transportation to LaGuardia or JFK airports, Millbrook will have a chartered bus leaving for these airports at 7 a.m., on Saturday, November 21.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there is a limit of 20 students on the bus. If you would like to sign up your child for a seat on the bus, please click here.
As always, you are welcome to make your own travel arrangements for your child. Please visit the Transportation Information page on our website for local car service recommendations.
Should you have any questions related to dismissal times, transportation, or packing, please contact Dan Skoglund or JJ Morrissey in the student life office.
