We are so excited to welcome our FPDS Grandparents! Invite your loved ones to enjoy breakfast, visit classrooms, and attend a program filled with excitement, laughter and special moments with your students.

This year, we will be hosting our grandparents and special friends for our Preschool through 6th grade students. 

We kindly ask that parents do not attend so that this can be a special time for students and their grandparents and special friends.

  • You may RSVP at the top of this webpage. The RSVP allows FPDS to know how many to expect for breakfast refreshments/seating and to serve as a "release form" for teachers to allow a student to accompany their grandparent, so please let us know if you are able to join us.

  • "One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts." — Psalm 145:4
    Grandparents play a uniquely meaningful role in the lives of their grandchildren. FPDS seeks to honor and nurture that special bond by providing a dedicated time set aside just for them. We are deeply grateful for the impact grandparents have on our students.

  • A special friend, neighbor, great aunt, or another important adult in a child’s life is always welcome to attend in their place. We love celebrating the people who pour into our students.

  • Yes, we have elevators to help get you to classrooms. We will also have golf carts in the parking lot to aid you in entering the building.

  • The preschool student may accompany you to the program or stay behind with their teacher in their room and wait to be picked up by you at dismissal.
