🦒Official Statement from BASIS Texas Charter Schools and Gracie the Giraffe:
💛BASIS Texas Charter Schools are pleased to confirm the recent reports that Gracie the Giraffe has been found safe.
During her time away, we can now confirm that Gracie made several unofficial visits to BASIS San Antonio campuses.
🍎Witnesses report Gracie spent time peeking into classroom windows, reaching the highest library shelves with ease, and giving our students a new perspective on what it means to “stand tall” in pursuit of learning.
After exploring each BASIS San Antonio campus, Gracie decided it was time to head home—with a newfound appreciation for world-class, tuition-free K-12 education.
Inspired by Gracie's adventure? 📚Join us for an upcoming school tour to meet our Heads of School, explore our classrooms, and discover why so many families are choosing BASIS for the 2026–27 school year.
(🤣 This statement has been shared in good fun and is not a factual account of Gracie's whereabouts over the last two weeks.)
