Parent’s Weekend

Come join us for an autumn weekend in Branson, MO to take in 

the beautiful Ozarks and get a taste of what life is like for students at the Institute!

October 10-12, 2025

We encourage you to come on Friday afternoon and stay for the weekend.

Friday night will be time you get to spend as a family, see the campus, and enjoy an evening in Branson.

Saturday morning begins with a program in the Classroom where some of our Staff and Parents will give a vision and overview about the Institute.  Then we will gather together at The Cottages at Lake Shore at 11:30 for a picnic and our Annual Corn Hole Tournament. 

In the evening, we will have an optional opportunity for you to attend David at the Sight & Sound Theater.
