Relatives & Special Friends Day is a Stephen Gaynor School tradition when we invite special guests (grandparents, relatives, family friends, etc.) into the school to see our students in action and learn about what makes a Gaynor education so impressive. We are thrilled to be back in person this year after a few years of hosting this event virtually.
