Message from Chair

Betsy Jenkins

Friends of Grace,

I don’t have words for how honored and excited I am to chair this year’s “Evening of Grace” event. As a fairly new parent to Grace, our family has been amazed by this community, the teachers, and staff. The call to excellence is evident in the daily life here, and we feel blessed and are grateful to have our children in this positive, loving, and Christ-centered environment. 

For An Evening of Grace this year, we welcome speaker and author, Tyler Staton, who is passionate about the importance of a deep commitment to prayer and living a faith-filled life. 

Proceeds from this event support the school’s annual fund. Grace Community School relies on these gifts and contributions beyond tuition revenue to provide a high-quality Christian education for students in an environment of excellence.

Please join me on November 14th at An Evening of Grace as we support, give thanks for, and celebrate all that is Grace Community School!

– Betsy
