This collaborative event underscores Ramsey’s commitment to providing a seamless transition for all incoming students, including our friends from Wandell who will become classmates at Smith.

🎨 The visiting students had the opportunity to meet future classmates and experience the vibrant daily life of the school.

  • Their day was structured around a rotation through Dater's diverse special subjects, including Art, Gym, and Spanish.

  • These hands-on activities offered a tangible glimpse into the enriching curriculum that awaits them.

πŸ“šIn a move to connect them with the academic and social environment, fifth-grade students joined a lively book club discussion, fostering early intellectual bonds. All students were also treated to an exciting preview of the recent school musical, showcasing the energy and talent within Dater’s arts programs.

By building these early connections and allowing students to discover new interests, the visit successfully helped them get excited for their next academic step.
