Seattle Country Day School

Last night, 44 lovely young people graduated from Seattle Country Day School with just the right amount of pomp, circumstance, and puns. Their classmate Garrett B. recalled memorable moments in the class’s history; there were several fantastic student performances; and faculty speaker Chase F. reminded graduates and audience members alike that collaboration and integrity can change the world. Class of 2026, we’re very proud of you. And with that, SCDS wishes all our readers a great summer…we’ll see you in September!

In Ms. A-Squared’s after-school Destination Imagination class at SCDS this year, students in grades 3–5 broke into three teams: Unforgettable took on a science challenge and presentation on neuroscience and memory; Creative 6 took on a fine arts/theatrical challenge with a supervillain and a hero; and Team Absent took on a theatre improv challenge involving opposition and resolution. All the teams placed well in the regionals in Bremerton; Team Absent eventually made it all the way to the globals, held in Kansas City, Missouri, where they garnered 22nd place this May. Congratulations to all the participants…and to their excellent teacher and coach, Ms. A-Squared!
