Dear St. Mark’s Parents,
We are very much looking forward to the opening of St. Mark’s new residence hall, Patterson-Sculley House, later this month. The opening marks a transformative moment in the history of the School, reuniting all of our students on main campus and centralizing the entire campus community. Following is some important information about the move:
- Faculty members who are moving into Patterson-Sculley House will make a series of moves between November 9 and 19.
- All student items will be moved into the new building on November 21 and 22, while students are on Thanksgiving break. St. Mark’s has hired a moving company to move the belongings of more than 140 students over these two days.
- Boxes and packing supplies are being delivered to common rooms this week. Each student should take three small boxes and one medium box. Packing tape will be provided. Packing instructions will be provided to students. Boxes must be color-coded and labeled.
- Rooms must be completely cleared, and all material must be in boxes, bags, or containers before November 21. Boxes and items will remain in student rooms until November 21.
- Students who live locally should bring some of their belongings home over the next two weekends to minimize the number of items that need to be moved into the new building.
- Beginning November 15, students will have dedicated time from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. each day for packing. Students may not be able to participate in afternoon practices on Thursday and Friday, November 17 and 18, depending on their packing status.
- Rooms will need to be approved by a faculty member and keys must be turned in before students leave on Saturday, November 19. Students whose rooms are in unsatisfactory condition will be charged a fee to cover cleaning, packing, and moving costs.
Thank you for supporting your students during this historic time in St. Mark’s history. Please feel free to contact me or Maggie Caron, dean of student engagement, with any questions. Go St. Mark’s!
Sincerely,
