This morning we celebrated a job well done to our lower school and middle school students in Honors Day! Students in each discipline and grade were honored for their exceptional hard work and diligence throughout the entire year. Jack ’34 won the 🏆 Faculty Cup for the lower school and Will ’30 won the award for middle school. Caitie Anderson, lower school STEM teacher earned the ⭐️ Excellence in Teaching award for the lower school and Vickie Hall earned it for the middle school. Congratulations to ALL of our award winners!

Recently our lower school students showcased their acting and singing skills in the LS Musical and Recital! Students worked for weeks to learn songs and choreography for “Disney’s Dare to Dream.” Our lower school musical gives students the opportunity to sample theater at St. David’s while gaining leadership skills, building confidence, flexing their vocals and learning the value of teamwork and perseverance. We are so proud of these young performers for sharing their talents and joy with our community! Shoutout to our upper school and middle school CREW workers for the show. These talented students gave their time and talents to serve our little Warrior actors. 🎭✨

⭐️ Congratulations to Campbell ’27 for earning a prestigious scholarship from the New York Film Academy at the recent DPAC Rising Star Awards! The award totals $80K toward study in NYC, Los Angeles, and Florence, Italy. Campbell has been a standout performer in many St. David’s plays and musicals and continues to share her incredible gift for acting and singing with our community. We can’t wait to cheer her on as she pursues her dreams. 🎭✨

💦 Just some more photos 📸 for your timeline from middle school field day! Students enjoyed lots of water games including water slides and a dunk tank.

➡️ College bound! The official college map for the is now out. 🎓 This exceptional group of students has gained admission to an impressive array of colleges and universities. We’re excited to share all of their stats soon! Visit the link in bio for the full listing of college acceptances for the St. David’s Class of 2026.

Our seniors are having an incredible trip in Greece! 🇬🇷 Students have explored Athens and visited historic sites, including the Parthenon 🏛️ , while following in the footsteps of Paul through scripture.

One special moment came as students watched the sunset over the Gulf of Corinth while Sam ’26 read Acts 18 on site in Corinth, bringing scripture to life in a powerful way.

👋 Say hello to this new group of FRESHMEN! Today during chapel, middle school students participated in the moving up ceremonies. Each grade “moved up” to the seats of their new grade, leaving space for our new 5th grade class and transitioning our 8th graders to upper school! We are proud of each of these remarkable students.
