Lower School Knightline

Our Lower School 5th grade leaders enjoyed a wonderful day on Friday as they participated in their retreat and celebrated the Sweatshirt Ceremony. We are so proud of the example these students set for our community.

Today our entire school community gathered for an All-School Worship Service to officially kick off the 2026-2027 school year. It was a special time to come together in faith, celebrate the start of a new year, and reflect on the values that unite us as a community. We look forward to a year filled with learning, growth, service, and meaningful connections.

We have also been collecting donations for the School Supply Drive and are incredibly grateful for the generosity of our families. Thank you for helping us support students and schools in need through your thoughtful contributions.

Reminders:

If you arrive before morning carpool begins at 7:25 a.m. and need to walk your PK student to Greer, please pull into a parking space at A, B, or C and walk your child into the building. Thank you for helping us keep morning arrival safe and smooth for everyone!

Girls on the Run registration closes on Friday, August 28 for girls in 3rd-5th grades. Practices will begin on Wednesday, September 9. To learn more, click here.
