Way Opens Day: A Celebration of Community, Resilience & Renewal

Friday, April 23, 2027 | Beginning at 4:30 PM
Sandy Spring Friends School

On April 23, 2025, the way opened for Sandy Spring Friends School. Two years later, we invite our entire Springer community—students, families, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends—to gather in gratitude, reflection, and celebration.

Way Opens Day is an opportunity to honor a defining moment in our school's history, recognize the extraordinary commitment of our community, and celebrate the many ways we continue to come together to build a strong and vibrant future for SSFS.

4:30 PM | Meeting for Worship

We will begin with a special Meeting for Worship, creating space to reflect on the historic events that brought our community together, the journey we have shared since, and the ways we continue to move forward with hope, purpose, and a shared commitment to Sandy Spring Friends School.

Community Picnic | Food, Friendship & Connection

Following Meeting for Worship, gather with fellow Springers for a relaxed community picnic. Reconnect with old friends, meet new members of our community, and enjoy an evening of fellowship as we celebrate the relationships and shared values that make SSFS so special.

SBP Memorial Concert | Live Music & Celebration

We'll close the evening with the SBP Memorial Concert, bringing our community together through live music in a celebration of creativity, connection, and remembrance.

Way Opens Day is more than an anniversary. It is a celebration of what is possible when a community comes together, remains steadfast in its values, and believes in the future it can create.

The way opened because of our community. Together, we continue to move forward.

We hope you'll join us for this meaningful evening of reflection, fellowship, and celebration.
