Graham School girls gather for high tea and poetry!

Elementary and middle school girls at Graham School recently participated in an acrostic poem writing workshop joyfully over high tea! The gathering was hosted by Mrs. Youngblood, middle school social studies teacher and Ms. Graham, parent liaison at Graham School. Seventh and eighth grade girls were partnered with an elementary scholar where they worked on acrostic poems together. They also enjoyed desserts and snacks such as brownies, cupcakes, cookies, pies, cheese and crackers while sipping tea that were all provided by generous donations from Graham School parents.

Additionally, Graham parents shared information on their journey from school to their present careers. Many Graham female staff members shared pictures of their younger selves which were shown as a video slideshow. The girls were delighted as they guessed which staff member each young girl was.  Also present were staff members who shared advice on being self-confident, respectful, dreaming big and thinking positively!
