Catlin Gabel

Three grades, three trips, and three days of hands-on learning!🌲

To close out the school year, our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders headed out for overnight trips — from baking rhubarb cake and camping through thunderstorms at Ekone Ranch to waterfalls and hiking at Mt. Hood Kiwanis Camp.

On Saturday, Catlin Gabel marched in the Clara Peoples Freedom Trail Parade as part of the Juneteenth Oregon Celebration.

Thank you to our community for coming together in celebration alongside our city. 💙

Thank you, Catlin Gabel community, for coming together to celebrate Juneteenth with food, crafts, and community.

A special highlight of the evening: honoring K**a Bruce, Assistant Head of School, for four years of extraordinary leadership and community building. We're so grateful. ❤️💙🤍

Try your luck! 🎰 In early June, CG students collaborated to design, construct, wire, and program a full-scale pinball machine that will live on campus for years to come.

Pinball Design Xperience is one of the 14 immersives CG upper schoolers chose this spring – each providing two weeks of experiential learning in place of traditional classes.

The annual Egg Drop delivered egg-citement from start to finish. 🥚

Third graders brought their best thinking and contraptions to this year's Egg Drop, putting their creative engineering solutions to the ultimate test. Thank you to all third graders, our teachers, and families who joined us for this fun tradition!

We celebrated two other big milestones last week as our 5th and 8th graders marked the end of their Lower and Middle School journeys. These students have grown in confidence, curiosity, and community—and we can’t wait to see what’s next.

Congratulations Class of 2026! We're so proud of you.

That’s a wrap on another incredible year. ✨ Thank you to our students, families, and faculty for making it one to remember.

And a heartfelt thank you to Head of School Tim Bazemore for 12 years of remarkable leadership. We’re so grateful. 🌼
