Each year, Rio hosts Parent Weekend the weekend before Thanksgiving home leave. The families of current students are invited to Rio for a weekend of events including a drama production, music concert, and a talent program.
Parents may also make an appointment to speak with their student’s teachers. Parent/teacher conferences will run from 8:45 am to 12:00 pm on Sunday, with a brunch break from 10:15-10:45 am. Parents can also arrange a time on Saturday night if they are limited by time. Appointments are split into 15-minute blocks of time.
If you would like to attend Parent Weekend, please fill out the registration form at the bottom of the page so we can make the appropriate arrangements. Rooms in the dorm are limited, so please RSVP as soon as possible if you would like to reserve a room.
