Grandparents' Day

Thank you to all who joined us for our 2013 event.
We welcomed 450 grandparents and guests for a special morning at Totino-Grace. The 2014 Grandparents' Day event date will be announced soon.

 

At Totino-Grace, we host a Mass and reception in honor of our students' grandparents, or the special senior citizens in their lives, and invite them to join us for our annual celebration. Following the Mass, grandparents are invited to attend a class with their grandson or grandaughter. This event is a wonderful opportunity for our students to create a special memory with their grandparents and provide them with a glimpse of life at Totino-Grace.

If you have questions regarding Grandparents' Day,
please contact Kelly Refsnider at 763-571-9116 ext. 212.

 

FAQ

Q

What if my child doesn't have living grandparents?

A

If the TG student has a relationship with a special senior citizen (great aunt or uncle, neighbor, etc.) they are more than welcome to join us for Grandparents' Day. If students do not bring guests, they will still participate in the Mass and enjoy the company of our guests. Please know that we will recognize and honor all grandparents who are no longer living or who could not join us that morning.

Q

What if my child's grandparents are unable to attend due to health reasons or they live out of town?

A

If the TG student has a relationship with a special senior citizen (great aunt or uncle, neighbor, etc.) they are more than welcome to join us for Grandparents' Day. If students do not bring guests, they will still participate in the Mass and enjoy the company of our guests. Please know that we will recognize and honor all grandparents who are no longer living or who could not join us that morning.

Q

Where should my student's grandparents park?

A

We have reserved the first several rows for our guests as well as the front driveway - for those with accessability issues. We do strongly encourage guests to arrive early, as our parking lot does fill up quickly.

Q

What if my student's grandparents are not Catholic?

A

Our Mass is a celebration and we encourage guests of all faiths to join our community in prayer.

Q

What will be served at the reception?

A

A variety of sweet rolls, coffee and milk.

Q

What if the attending grandparents have more than one student at TG? Can they go to more than one class?

A

In an effort to focus on the importance of the academic day, grandparents are welcome to attend one class with their student. The class hour is pre-determined and will follow the morning's Mass. Students and grandparents are encouraged to determine which class the grandparent will attend prior to the event.

David Bank Studio photographers were at our event to take photos of students and their grandparents before Mass and during the reception.
Photos from the event are now available for guests to view and purchase. Click HERE access the images.
