Today we recognize Juneteenth, a day of freedom, remembrance, and reflection. At Palisades Episcopal School, we honor the significance of this day and the opportunity to continue learning, listening, and building a community rooted in dignity, justice, and love.
Camp Gryphon has been full of adventure these past two weeks. From daily field trips to creative hands-on learning, our campers have been busy exploring, trying new things, and making sweet new friendships along the way.
We love seeing their curiosity, confidence, and joy grow each day! We are looking forward to many more fun-filled weeks ahead.
Art Camp at PES was glowing with creativity last week.
Our theme, “Glow & Create”, gave campers the chance to explore color, imagination, and a little bit of art-room magic. They made fireflies, neon zebras, sea creatures, pop-art flowers, pool-noodle sculptures, painted rock fish, and clay fish. All inspired by beloved childhood picture books.
Messy hands, bright ideas, and glowing creations made for an exciting and beautiful week in the art room.
