The Senior Experience at Gracewood Academy 

The senior year of high school is an important milestone for our students. We celebrate throughout the school year with memorable events for the seniors.  Senior year at Gracewood Academy includes:  senior dinners, senior sunrise, and a photoshoot.  Seniors attend a Christian prom in Frisco in the spring.  Gracewood Academy also hosts a Senior Awards Ceremony at the end of the school year.  There are many opportunities for seniors to create wonderful memories in a Christ-centered environment.  

​

Graduation

The Gracewood Academy graduation ceremony is very personal, and incorporates parents into the graduation process.  Parents present a slideshow highlighting their graduate, then recognize their student prior to presenting their Gracewood Academy diploma.  This  is a reflection of the home and school partnership.  Graduation is followed by a reception where friends and family can enjoy refreshments and view the graduates' tables.  Each graduate has an individual table that they are able to decorate with memorabilia that represents their life thus far.
