Elementary Girls' Volleyball Going to the Championship!

On November 19, Grace Elementary Girls' Volleyball played an amazing game earning their ticket to the Championship game. In this semi-finals winning performance, they competed against an undefeated Pleasant Valley Christian team and won in three nail biter games. Their season ended with a 2nd place standing in the West Division of the TVCAL League.

Led by Head Coach, Solveiga Vince, and Assistant Coach, Janel Tucker, the Grace girls demonstrated resilience all year long. Elementary Athletic Director, Dylan Cereoli, says what makes this group so special is the bond the girls have for each other and the culture and atmosphere that both coaches have promoted this season. "It is a very big reason why they are in the position they are in going into the championship game." 

They will be playing Ventura Missionary School on Thursday, November 21 at 3:30pm in Ojai. The Grace team is the current defending champions and if they win this year, they will have won back to back championships. Congratulations to the coaches and team for an outstanding season!

Big Book Project makes a Big Impression

Teacher Stephanie Martinez shares The Big Book Project which was assigned to the 8th Grade Honors English class as a culminating project for their independent reading book. The students used a poster board to create a "big book" that displays a re-designed cover, character sketches, a detailed plot diagram, a literary analysis of theme, and a book review. The Grace 8th graders displayed impressive results and creativity on this project and had fun doing it! One student, Norah, said, "This project let us use our imagination and creativity," and another student, Candace, said, "The Big Book Project was fun and made my mind wrap around all the parts of my book." Congratulations to the 8th grade honors english class and to Mrs. Martinez for a successful project. We are so proud of you!
