Grace Unveils New Mission Statement

Grace is many things to many people. It's the classrooms where knowledge is gained and the stages where creativity is nurtured. It's the courts and fields where both the hard-fought victories and the narrow defeats are embraced for the lessons they teach us. It's the teachers who encourage tough questions, the colleagues who inspire, and the parents and families who enthusiastically partner with the school to make it a better place. Grace is the hallways where friendships are formed, the reunions where bonds are rekindled, and so much more. 

 

Our new mission statement, which you can find below, seeks to capture both what Grace is and what we hope it will be, paying homage to the school’s rich history and defining the timeless values that will continue to guide us. As you read the mission statement, we encourage you to think about the parts that resonate with you most. Where do you see yourself and your role in the community, and how can you engage with the words in ways that feel meaningful to you?

 

We also invite you to watch this video to hear about how this mission statement, at this moment, feels right, and how we envision it informing our work. Throughout the coming months, you’ll hear from other members of the community, each of whom will share, from their unique perspective, how the mission statement inspires and guides them. 

 

Thank you to the many people who so generously gave their time and energy to make this new mission statement a reality. We’re deeply grateful and look forward to witnessing its full realization, lived out in each of you, now and in the years to come.
