Grandparents & Special Friends Day at WPS

10/29/2025

Berlin, MD – On Friday, October 24, Worcester Preparatory School (WPS) hosted the grandparents and guests of our lower school students for a special day on campus.

Lower School (Pre-K – Grade 5) students have been busy preparing class projects and performances in anticipation of Grandparents and Special Friends Day at WPS. The day began with coffee and refreshments, followed by a "Harvesting Memories” themed performance by each grade. The students then met their grandparents and special guests in the Field House to present their projects. Next up were visits to the Lower School classrooms and a quick stop for a keepsake photo. The day ended in the library with a visit to the Book Fair.
