The Grace School Walkathon is just 2 weeks away.  Please look below for information on the day and ways to help us meet our goal of raising $25,000 for the school. 

Fall MAP testing begins next week in Grades 2-8. Use the School Calendar link below to find out when your child tests. Each student in Grades 2-8 will take 3 tests over the next two weeks. A couple tips to help your child do their best are to make sure they get a good night of sleep and eat a healthy breakfast on the morning of each test. Good luck to all of our students. 

School Picture Day is Monday. Order forms must be returned by Monday if you wish to order photos of your child.

If you have not completed enrollment in GradeLink, please do so as soon as possible. It must be completed for each of your children. This is the information we use for emergency contacts, names of people who are allowed to pick your child, allergy information, etc. Copies of these forms are taken by classroom teachers on fire drills, field trips and offsite sporting events, so it important that we have updated information on each student.

School pictures for grades PK-7 are scheduled for Monday, September 20. We are planning on taking pictures outside so the rain date will be Tuesday, September 21. If you have not already returned your order form, please do so on Monday.

Graduation pictures for this year's 8th grade class will be taken on Monday, October 4.

We have extra copies of last year's yearbook. If you would like to purchase one, the cost is $24.00.

Walk with Grace, Grace Lutheran School’s annual walk-a-thon fundraiser is Friday, October 1^st, which means we are only TWO WEEKS AWAY!  We are currently not even half-way to our $25,000 goal, it's all hands on deck time! So, if you haven't already, please sign up for Pledgestar. It is by far the easiest way to raise funds for our sensational school and fabulous families, every little bit helps! You can also collect money by using the walk-a-thon packet found here.

As you know, along with raising funds, we will be walking through the neighborhood and collecting items for Beyond Hunger. Your students learned about Beyond Hunger in chapel on Wednesday, make sure to ask them about it! In addition, the students will also be bringing in their own items starting next Thursday 9/24 in a friendly class competition. Information will be in Tuesday folders and the students will learn about it in person at chapel this Wednesday. 

As with every event, it needs help to run smoothly. Please find the link here in all the ways you can get involved before, during and after the event. NOTE- we are in more need of walkers and game helpers for the middle and upper grades. We are also still looking for wagons!!

Save the Date- We want to let you take a night off from making dinner while supporting our super school. When you purchase food on Monday, September 27^th at Chipotle on Lake Street in Oak Park from 4-8pm, a percentage will go back to Grace and our walk-a-thon. More information will be coming in Tuesday folders.

We had a great start to our volleyball season on Monday with three very hard-fought matches including a Boys Varsity victory! Good luck to both varsity teams that are competing in tournaments this weekend. Our next home games are Monday, 9/20 and Thursday. 9/23. Unfortunately, due to COVID, we have to restrict our spectators to only family members of our athletes for the time being. FAMILIES, please remember to sign up to help keep score, we need to share the responsibilities in order for everything to run smoothly. Go Vikings!
