Grandfriends Page

Grandparents, extended family members, and special friends, whom we lovingly refer to as “grandfriends,” are an important part of our Redwood Day community. We invite you to be a part of your grandchild(ren)’s or special friend’s experience at Redwood Day in any of the following ways: 

Redwood Day traditionally hosts an annual Generations Day event on our campus on the Friday before Thanksgiving week. The event is dedicated to our grandfriends so they can meet our leadership, mingle with each other, learn about the School, and, most importantly, be a part of their student’s experience at Redwood Day. For those of you that live locally or will be in town, we hope you’ll join us for Generations Day on Friday, November 17. If you’re unable to make it, we will email out a recording of the student performances afterward.

Leave a “Grandfriend Note” to your student(s) in our annual magazine, RD Connects. This is a great way to surprise your student with a heartfelt note or words of encouragement that they will have in print as a keepsake for years to come! CLICK HERE to leave your note. 

Grandfriends are invited to other Redwood Day events, including our annual Auction, Winter Concert, student art shows, the STEAM Fair, Step Up, and 8th-grade graduation. (Capacity may be limited at some events.)

Sign up for our email invitations by joining our grandfriend list below.

We’d be happy to add you to our grandparent and special friends contact list. We’ll send you invitations to events. Please email genday@rdschool.org to ensure we have your most up-to-date contact information.

Grandparents and special friends are invited to make a gift to our Annual Fund. Gifts to the Annual Fund allow the School to provide a world-class curriculum, attract and retain a diverse, highly qualified, and culturally competent faculty and staff and remain accessible to a wide range of families through a strong tuition assistance program. You are also invited to sponsor or donate items for the Redwood Day annual Auction.

Leave a legacy gift through a donation in your will, trust, or retirement account to Redwood Day. For more information, please CLICK HERE or contact our Advancement Department at 510.534.0804 x236 or advancement@rdschool.org.
