    ✨ A new school year, a new chapter, and so much po ✨ A new school year, a new chapter, and so much possibility! ✨

From our Preschool students taking their first steps into a new year, to our Grade 5 students beginning their final year at Grace, today was filled with the excitement, wonder, and possibility of a new school year.

This morning, our PreK students began their day by walking through the labyrinth our community created together a couple of years ago—a beautiful reminder that every journey begins with a first step. And this afternoon, our Grade 5 students settled in for a story with their teacher, beginning their last chapter at Grace surrounded by familiar faces and a whole year of possibilities ahead.

From ages 2 to 11, every Grace learner has a story unfolding. We can't wait to see where this year takes them. 💚

Welcome back, Gryphons! Here's to a year of wonder, purpose, belonging, and learning together. 🐾

    🐾 Meet Gracie! 💚 Grace has a new member of the co 🐾 Meet Gracie! 💚

Grace has a new member of the community, and she’s already busy exploring her new home!

Gracie, our new school puppy, has been getting to know campus and all the sights, sounds, and new friends that make Grace feel like Grace. 🐶

Our Gryphons return Tuesday, September 8, but this Friday families will get a little sneak peek of their classrooms. As you explore, Gracie will come find you to say hello!

We’re excited to watch her discover Grace alongside our students—and become part of the wonder, purpose, and belonging that make our community so special. 💚🐾

    A little time to pause, reflect, and reconnect! B A little time to pause, reflect, and reconnect!

Before the halls fill back up, our administrative team spent some time together at Great Falls—stepping away from the day-to-day to reflect on the year ahead, share ideas, and recharge.

Now we're ready to welcome our teachers back to campus and get this year rolling! 💚

Here's to a new school year filled with curiosity, connection, and lots of learning along the way.

    🌿✨ We’re celebrating Kindergarten teacher Ginger B 🌿✨ We’re celebrating Kindergarten teacher Ginger Brooker, who was selected to participate in the Growing Together Cohort, a special professional development experience focused on nature play and nature-based learning for young children.

This week, Ginger is spending time at the National Zoo, Smithsonian Gardens, and the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (pictured), exploring new ways to bring the natural world into children’s learning—both outdoors and inside the classroom. We can’t wait to see how Ginger brings her new ideas back to Grace 🌱

Congratulations, Ginger! We’re so proud of you! 💚
