Parents Weekend
Join us on the Hilltop for a fun-filled weekend with your son, where you will have the opportunity to connect with your son’s advisor, coach, teachers, dorm parents and fellow Salisbury parents.
During Parents Weekend, you will learn more about life at Salisbury, hear from Acting Head of School Bobby Wynne P’19, meet parents at Form Receptions, take part in the academic awards ceremony, and have the chance to take-in a full slate of home athletic contests, before departing campus for a long weekend with your son.
