FOR THE JUNIOR COTILLION PROGRAM, PLEASE SEE THE INFORMATION BELOW (6th through 8th grades)

We divide the Junior Cotillion program into two groups: Year I (6th graders) and Year II (7th and 8th graders).  Please note, your child does not need to participate as a 6th grader in order to join us as a 7-8th grader!  ALL students (Year I and Year II Groups) attend the semi-formal Balls jointly.  

Dates for our programs are chosen MONTHS in advance.  We try to avoid major holidays and school vacations. However, with over 40 schools represented at our Cotillion, we cannot avoid all of the various school vacations.  If we do have to change a date, we will provide generous advance notice to families.
