LOCATION DETAILS WILL BE SENT OUT PRIOR TO EACH EVENT.
When looking at the schedule, you will notice that most of the presentations are designed with a particular grade level in mind. Regardless of which school a student attends or their grade level, families are encouraged to virtually attend any sessions they wish. It is our desire, that regardless of the host school, you feel welcomed. While we have two high schools, three middle schools and six elementary schools, we are one Lower Merion family. Students are welcomed and encouraged to be part of all sessions. When presentations are virtual, links will be sent out prior to each event.
