In the latest episode of the "Raiders in Focus" podcast, hosts Glynn Below and Elizabeth Crampsey sit down with Kelley Wolfe, Director of Auxiliary Programs & Pre-K/Kindergarten STEM, to discuss what summer at Randolph is like.

While many schools quiet down during the summer months, our campus stays alive with activity and opportunities for children from all schools. From hands-on STEM camps and the Greengate Reading Program to athletic camps and leadership opportunities, Randolph creates a summer environment that balances fun, friendship, creativity, and continued growth.

They also cover professional development and learning opportunities available for parents, educators, tutors, therapists, and anyone who works with children.

Summer at Randolph is full of opportunities to learn, grow, connect, and make lasting memories.

Summer at Randolph with Kelley Wolfe Raiders in Focus · Episode

After the 8th Grade Moving Up Ceremony today, students took one final ride through Drake Campus carline before beginning their next chapter in Upper School on Garth. What started during COVID for the Class of 2024 has become a beloved tradition we simply cannot let go. 💙

As a community, we made it through this whirlwind month filled with concerts, ceremonies, parties, and countless memorable moments. What a privilege it is to be busy with so much joy.

And now, after the final sprint, it’s time for summer, sunshine, and a little well-earned R&R. ☀️

Today, we celebrated a special milestone as our 4th grade students said farewell to Lower School and looked ahead to their next chapter in Middle School. 💙

From classroom discoveries and field trips to friendships, performances, and everyday moments of growth, these students have undoubtedly built a strong foundation during their time in Lower School.

We are so proud of who they are becoming, and cannot wait to see them thrive in 5th grade!

Congratulations to our Pre-K graduates on a wonderful first year!

Through research-based instruction, Pre-K students build foundational reading and math skills, while also developing fine and gross motor skills and confidence as learners. Every day brings new opportunities for discovery through science, music, art, technology, coding, library, Spanish, French, and physical education.

The future is bright for the Class of 2039! 💙

✏️ Join us for the third annual Summer Institute for Teaching & Learning: “Writing Across the Curriculum.”

We will dive into the foundational skills that students need to become proficient writers in every content area. Through an engaging and collaborative day, participants will gain research-based strategies they can immediately apply in the classroom or at home.

The Oregon Trail came to life for 4th grade students as they stepped into the roles of pioneers traveling westward across America.

Working in wagon “families,” students packed supplies, navigated challenges, and discovered how cooperation, perseverance, and problem-solving were essential for survival along the trail. The immersive simulation transformed classroom lessons into an engaging, cross-disciplinary learning experience.

Leading up to graduation, several speeches from the Class of 2026 reflected on the Oregon Trail as a core memory from their Randolph journey. We hope these students will one day look back on this experience just as fondly.

We’re hiring! We are currently seeking:

🍎 Middle School Greengate Math Teacher ✏️

Teach 5th, 6th, and bridge program 7th-grade math courses while working closely with dyslexia specialists across both the Greengate and Middle School divisions.

🍎 Lower School Greengate Teacher ✏️

Teach core academic subjects and social-emotional skills in a collaborative, self-contained class of about 15 students, alongside co-teachers and dyslexia specialists.

Greengate School at Randolph offers educators the opportunity to be part of one of only 18 Orton-Gillingham Academy Accredited schools in the nation and the only accredited school of its kind in Alabama. Combined with Randolph’s distinction as the #1 private school in Alabama, our faculty are part of a collaborative community dedicated to equipping students with the tools, confidence, and strategies to thrive.
