School News
The Senior Chapel Service was a very special day at GCS. Each member of the senior class was recognized and honored by a staff member. Many of these graduates have attended GCS all four years of their high school career. One of the benefits of attending a small school like Grace is that we know every student SO well. It makes saying goodbye VERY difficult.

GCS welcomed acclaimed children's author and motivational speaker, Trace Wilson to chapel in May. Born without a right hand, Trace has learned to love his unique differences and now seeks to help other children do the same. In addition to sharing his children's books, Uniquely Me and Uniquely Brave, Trace spoke on John 7:24 and how we are called not to judge others according to outward appearances. |

School Activities
The BEST FOOT FORWARD SERVICE CLUB met in late May to assemble 12 boxes of student collected items for soldiers serving in Kuwait. Staff Sergeant Daniel Salmon's wife, Rene Salmon assisted with the packaging. Her husband's battalion should receive the boxes by the end of the month. Great work, GCS community! |

After expenses, GCS raised $17,073.98 during our Walk-a-thon. Our donation will be used to support the families of wounded veterans. Mr. Walker said, "The best medicine a vet can have is to have his family close."
