Thank you for all your dedication and heart this year, Eagles, you inspire us every day!. 🦅✨

We officially celebrated our 8th graders as they walked the stage and looked ahead to high school. This group marks a special milestone for our community as the largest 8th-grade class to graduate from St. Paul.

Ms. Lala opened the ceremony and then national anthems were performed by the St. Paul Sound Choir. We heard inspiring addresses from Head of School, Dr. Moo, Middle School Principal, Mr. North, and Faculty Speaker, Mr. Massaro, alongside a wonderful speech by Class Speaker, Lucy.

A special shoutout to our symbol bearers representing excellence in academia, athletics, creative arts, performing arts, community, and leadership, as well as our student MCs who kept the program running smoothly.

We are incredibly proud of everything this class has achieved since their year began with that first team-building trip to Ba Vi. High school is lucky to have you next year!

We officially celebrated our 5th graders as they graduated from elementary school and prepared to take their next big step into middle school.

The morning started with a welcome from Dr. Moo and the national anthems performed by the Eagles Choir. Our graduates heard some wonderful words of advice from Elementary Principal, Ms. Kim and faculty speakers Ms. Andrea, Mr. David, and Ms. Jenn, and Middle School Principal, Mr. North. We also got to hear from student speakers Jack, Yihyun, and My, followed by a fun look back during the 5th-grade memories video.

One of the absolute highlights of the ceremony was the students performing their graduation song, “It’s Our Time."

Thank you to Lily, Dora, Jiyeon, Zi-An, and Yan Chal for leading the closing appreciation, and to all the families who came out to support. We are so proud of how much these students have grown, and we can’t wait to see them bring their confidence and curiosity into the middle school hallways next year!

Last Friday, our elementary students wrapped up the school year with a full day of outdoor games and sunshine.

Students spent the day rotating through different stations with their classmates, keeping cool with the dunk tank and slip 'n slide, getting creative with chalk painting, and swimming in the pool. We ended the afternoon the best way possible, cooling off together with some well-deserved popsicles.

It was a great way to celebrate the start of summer and a fantastic end to the school year. Thank you to our PTA for the refreshments and snack stations. We deeply appreciate all the elementary staff who always make this event something to look forward to at the end of the year.
