Join in the fun! Grandparents’ Weekend!February 20-21, 2015

it's UsD’s 11th annual grandparents’ Weekend! During this very special weekend, we celebrate you — the grandparents and extended

families of UsD students. the weekend is filled with exciting activities including a “take Me out to the Ballgame” welcome reception, a thrilling torero baseball game, a new ’50s-themed “Be true to Your school” party and silent auction and so much more. the UsD campus is a beautiful place to enjoy with your student. We look forward to seeing you!

“Eleven years ago, when Grandparents’ Weekend was established, it was for us, the extension of a long loving relationship

with our granddaughters, Holly and Erica, who were living in the Washington, D.C., area. Holly was our first granddaughter to attend USD in 2004 and it was then that we became aware that USD offers more than just an education. We were thrilled when her sister, Erica, followed her in 2012. Since education has become so very expensive, we grandparents have had to take up some of the costs and we do so lovingly because we can see the difference USD makes in the character of our young people. USD is truly an extension of not only education, but a moral and ethical lifestyle. I am so proud to have helped start our grandparents’ program.”
