Crazy Socks Week

    On September 23, Dr. Stewart generously gave all the Grace Christian students the privilege of wearing crazy socks. He entitled it "Six Crazy Socks Days." The students were overjoyed, and had a lot of fun wearing all their unique and colorful socks. The elementary students especially enjoyed combining mismatched socks to enhance the Crazy Sock Week experience. Destiny Richardson, a third grader, wore mismatched socks. Levi Duininck, a student in Mrs. Kubow's first grade class, said, "On Friday, I wore my sister Hanna's soccer socks to school. They went all the way up my leg."

    Fourth grader Katie Clark said of her crazy socks, "These are my favorite socks because they're crazy and fun to wear. I like Crazy Socks Week because I don't have to worry about dress code." In addition to Dr. Stewart's amazing gift of Crazy Socks Week, he granted a Free Dress Day on Friday, October 1. The students are very excited and can't wait to wear "normal" clothing to school. They have all enjoyed their week of expressing their originality through their footwear. Bunmi Fagbenro, a junior, said, "Crazy Socks Week not only unifies the school as one unit, but also shows unique and interesting personalities. Crazy Socks Week is pandemonium!"
