Grauer Spelling Bee Representative At 2025 SD County Spelling Bee

This week, Dr. Grauer celebrates National Banjo Day, honoring the joy of the old-time tradition of making music by hand, and keeping this heritage alive. To study our heritage is fundamental to what educators and schools are charged with doing with a rising generation.

Grauer's High School Theatre Arts Department presented Pride and Prejudice. Congratulations to all of our cast members and hardworking crew members on a fabulous show! 

What happens when school leaders feel they can’t speak their passionate beliefs freely—even while teaching banned books? In an age of political tension and self-censorship, this piece explores the quiet dilemmas facing educators.

One of the highlights of the Poland Unveiled expedition was our unforgettable visits to monuments remembering the atrocities of the Holocaust and the resilience of the Polish people, which brought to life our World History curriculum on World War II. Our visits to each of these places were emotional, meaningful, and deeply important for our students.

The Grauer School balances college preparation with Expeditionary Learning, where we cancel classes 2 weeks each year in order to engage our students in humanitarian and ecological service. During Spring Expeditions week 2025, all of our students traveled in California and around the world. 

At The Grauer School, and any great school, dance and exercise isn’t just art—it’s a powerful form of learning even if it often stays in the shadows. Learn not just how dance is transforming students’ minds, bodies, and spirits—but why joy might be the most radical lesson of all.
