School is almost over and honestly, it can’t come quickly enough! Teachers are wilting before my very eyes. Parents look exhausted and slightly terrified. Students appear to have fallen victim to a zombie apocalypse. Furthermore, I’m not sure who that woman in the mirror is, but it can’t be me! For the first time in […]
On April 17, 1952, President Harry Truman signed a bill proclaiming the National Day of Prayer into law in the United States. President Ronald Reagan amended the law in 1988, designating the first Thursday of May each year as the National Day of Prayer. This Thursday, May 3rd, is the National Day of Prayer for 2018, and Gramercy Christian […]
Is it just me or did the third quarter just disappear in a dust cloud of flu virus and freaky weather? Wasn’t it just New Year’s Day? Perhaps I shouldn’t even admit this, but on the first Monday after Spring Break, I actually asked one of my classes to tell me what they did over […]

This morning at Gramercy in celebration of Dr. Seuss Day, our Kindergarten class presented our graduating Seniors with copies of Oh, the Places You’ll Go! It was so precious watching the bookends of our school sit together and read! I have no doubt as graduation approaches, many of our Seniors’ parents will be having vivid memories […]
Congratulations to the Gramercy Christian High School Drama Class for their brilliant production of The Good Doctor, a somewhat scandalous look at the often disguised, and sometimes blatant, fallen condition of humankind. Written by Neil Simon, and based on a collection of short stories by Anton Chekhov, The Good Doctor is a series of vignettes, both comical and tragic, […]
Ecclesiastes 7:8 reminds us that “the end of a thing is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.” As we wrap up 2017, this verse sounds very different than the usual hype surrounding the New Year, which is why I’m thinking about it. In fact, for over a week now I have […]

This joint chapel service offers Gramercy students, faculty, and […]
Thanksgiving came and went in a blur of family and food and I awoke Friday morning, November 24th, feeling as if I was already somehow behind. All my noble thoughts of living bound by thanks and practicing what Charles Spurgeon calls “thanks-feeling” were swallowed up in the black hole of Black Friday. My neighbors, most […]
