<p>I know it may seem premature to be worrying about this when everyone is getting excited about going, but I was wondering if anyone knew about the pick up process. When I talked to the office they said that the kids had to be picked up by 12 on Aug. 9, but they were done after their last class on Aug. 8, which ends at 3 and were free to go then. I asked if there was any kind of party or reception that night and I was told no, but I felt that I was talking to an admissions officer for the school, not really someone who knew a lot about the program. I would love to leave on the 8th but don’t want to deprive my daughter of some kind of goodbye ritual if there is one. Since I am flying across the country to pick her up to take her to join our family elsewhere, I would appreciate it if anyone who has had prior experience with this could let me know how the last two days work. Thanks!</p>
