Grand Rapids Christian High School Principal's Corner
High School Principal's Corner — April 29, 2025
Celebrating our Staff!
Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week, a time when we intentionally pause to recognize and celebrate the amazing work of our faculty and staff.
As both a proud principal and a grateful parent of three children blessed by the Grand Rapids Christian Schools community, I see firsthand the deep impact our staff has. My oldest daughter graduated in 2023, and our sophomore daughter is currently thriving at the high school. Around the dinner table, we often share stories of teachers and staff who have encouraged, challenged, and cared for our kids in meaningful ways.
The GRCHS faculty and staff are dedicated to student learning and work tirelessly to produce curiosity and exploration of God’s world in our students. They teach with a humility that acknowledges that they always have room to learn and grow. They care for and lean on one another, modeling for students what it means to be a thoughtful neighbor and to work collaboratively. They embrace the complexities of leading and teaching in today’s world and work alongside students to seek justice and to solve problems. Most importantly, our staff is Christ-centered, desiring more than anything that our students grow in discipleship. They daily model what it means to be effective servants of Christ.
If you would like to send a message of encouragement or contribute financially toward our appreciation efforts, you can do so here. We’re grateful for your partnership and prayers as we finish this school year strong!
