The Grauer School, a grades 7-12 independent, college preparatory school, celebrates three decades here in Encinitas. The Grauer School emphasizes meaningful mentoring relationships with all students through Socratic teaching, expeditionary and outdoor learning, and the globally renowned small school model.

Twice a year, Grauer students travel on week-long expeditions throughout the United States and abroad, and this year, “no pandemic was going to break our 30-year streak of offering enriching expeditions to our students,” states Dr. Stuart Grauer.  While the pandemic precluded far-flung travel options this year, the school reimagined fall expeditions week and allowed teachers and students to explore their passions locally through San Diego county. Additionally, after a 196-day closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Grauer School welcomed all students back to campus last week, with extensive safety measures in place and 16 outdoor classroom spaces, including a tree house and a beach!

The Grauer School is a proud member of NCPC and welcomes the community to learn more about empowering independent education. Join us on Saturday, November 7 for a Virtual Open House. Families can experience a virtual tour of the Grauer campus led by student ambassadors and hear directly from students about the Grauer experience. To learn more about The Grauer School and to RSVP, visit www.grauerschool.com or call 760-944-6777.
