Beyond practical support, grandparents offer a unique emotional stability that can nurture a deep sense of belonging and personal identity. Their presence in the lives of their grandchildren contributes in large and small ways to the Christian character of the generation that follows them. Willow Hefflefinger, a freshman at StoneBridge, offered her tribute to her grandparents, who have raised her since she was a baby.
Grandparents play a vital role in the lives of families and communities. They are often a unique bridge between generations. Their guidance can provide invaluable lessons to younger generations, helping to shape their character and strengthen family bonds. Gabe Nunziata, a senior at StoneBridge School, recently addressed a room full of StoneBridge grandparents with his own story during this year’s Grandparents and Special Friends Day.
At Stonebridge School, my children are truly loved, prayed over daily, and encouraged to do their very best, not just settle for the world’s standards of getting by academically. Our family is incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support through an education at Stonebridge School that ensures my children have an opportunity to succeed. Their dedication to academic excellence, Christian character, and preparing servant leaders for today and beyond, is unmatched.
The start of a new school year can be intense and exhaustive. As parents we are not only managing our own emotions but also those of our children. Understanding the impacts of stress, how it manifests, and common reactions to it is imperative in successfully navigating these transitions.
As I reflect on the rich blessings we have received as StoneBridge parents, I am grateful for wisdom from staff we recieved along the way. Early in my parenting experience, I realized the critical need for laying God’s Word at the foundation of raising my boys. The following resources are just a few that helped us in that journey.
