The Grauer School to Host Open House Event for Prospective Students & Families Nov. 2

The Grauer School, an independent school in Encinitas focused on Learning by Discovery®, will be hosting an Open House event for prospective students and families between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024. During the event, attendees will enjoy a student-led tour of the campus and have the opportunity to meet some of the extraordinary students, teachers and parents. Attendees also can attend presentations to receive an introduction to the middle and high school programs from Principal Alicia Tembi, hear about the school’s philosophy and vision from the Head of School Dana Abplanalp-Diggs, M.Ed., and learn about the school’s history from founder Stuart Grauer, Ed.D.

“At The Grauer School, we prioritize our students’ curiosity, independence and joy and value relationships above all else. Our teachers truly get to know their students and make time to listen and personally guide them. As a result, Grauer students develop the courage and freedom to cultivate their curiosity, master academic requirements and engage in their school community,” said Abplanalp-Diggs. “In many ways, this is the root of our success. Our kids learn to think, nurture their unique ideas, find joy in the process of learning and ultimately create the world in which they want to live.”

Following the Open House, The Grauer School will host Discover Grauer tour days, starting Thursday, Nov. 14 between 9:15 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. The following tour date is Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024, and in 2025, the tour dates will be Tuesday, Jan. 14; Wednesday, Jan. 22; Thursday, Jan. 30; Wednesday, Feb. 5 and Thursday, March 6.

“For those who missed our Open House or want a more in-depth experience of The Grauer School, our Discover Grauer tours are a great opportunity for families to visit our campus and classrooms while school is in session,” said Tembi. “Through small group tours, families will be able to experience ‘a day in the life’ of a Grauer student and get the full sense of The Grauer School.”
