Grace Episcopal Day School provides every student the
opportunity to thrive personally, socially, emotionally,
academically, and creatively in a caring, nurturing, moral
environment that embraces diversity and promotes self-confidence,
compassion and service to others. The School provides a rich
curriculum for students age two through Grade 5. Our student body
reflects a diversity of cultures, races, faith traditions, learning
styles, and perspectives. Small class size helps to create a
nurturing, supportive learning environment where students are
encouraged to think critically and creatively, laying a solid
foundation for lifelong exploration and achievement. We believe
that educating students requires a close partnership between school
and home, marked by open, forthright communications among
parents/guardians, faculty, students, and administrators. Students
and their families are welcomed into a close community bound
together by a common commitment to wonder, purpose, belonging,
service to others, and a joyful embrace of childhood.
