Discover Grauer Tours Scheduled at The Grauer School

San Diego, CA, December 18, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The Grauer School is hosting semi-private Discover Grauer Tours on Thursday, January 8th, January 21st and February 5th for prospective families. The hour long tours start at 9:15 a.m. and space on the tours is limited.

“Discover Grauer Tours are a wonderful way to learn about The Grauer School’s programs and view classroom dynamics in action,” states Sandy Merten, Associate Director of Admissions. “If you would like to get an inside glimpse into our school, we encourage you to RSVP for these free, semi-private tours.”

Families will meet faculty, students, and parents while touring The Grauer School’s visual and performing art spaces, science labs, robotics workshop, garden, teaching kitchen, and more. The tour includes an overview of The Grauer School’s engaging academics, integrated humanitarian service, exciting global expedition programs, and happy, connected students.

The Grauer School is a grades 7-12 college preparatory school that is the regional leader in the small schools movement. The Grauer School focuses on college preparatory rigor balanced with expeditionary learning and Socratic teaching. As a small school by design with approximately 150 students total, The Grauer School emphasizes relationship-based teaching that stems from its small class sizes with a student-to-teacher ratio of 7 to 1.

“The best way to understand the power of relationship-driven education, a core feature of The Grauer School, is to observe it firsthand,” Merten adds. “Once you step onto campus, and especially after you see a class in action, you’ll understand why our graduating students take on so many leadership and mentoring roles once they get to college.”

Since space on the tours is limited, families are asked to RSVP to the “Discover Grauer” event at www.grauerschool.com or by calling (760) 274-2116. Admission applications are due January 30th.
