In this week's column, Dr. Grauer welcomes newcomers by sharing a lifetime of wisdom he has learned from surfing the waves. He recommends taking time to "study the waves" to learn the Grauer culture before you jump in to "surf the Grauer wave".
In this week's column, Dr. Grauer explores his mantra to "do good work", even when it's frustrating and difficult to accomplish your goals. If the work is the right thing to do, then it's worth doing no matter the obstacles. It might make you late for dinner, though!
Welcome!
The Grauer School, one of San Diego’s premier prep schools, was founded in 1991 by Dr. Stuart Grauer to give teens a voice. Our students have matriculated to the nation’s finest colleges and universities. Our campus and diverse programs accommodate approximately 150 students in grades seven through 12.
Students spend their days in a Socratic environment on our green, six-acre campus in Encinitas, California. We want our students to try classes for fun, make mistakes, follow a passion, and do things that they are drawn to, rather than plotting out a preordained or controlled path. We believe they will achieve more enduring outcomes and passions in this way, and develop values like personal motivation, freedom, and courage.
