The Fall Fest takes place on the Beauvoir playground giving Beauvoir families a chance to connect. Children will enjoy fall-themed activities, while families will feast on fall snacks. This event is sponsored by Beauvoir’s PA.
This special event brings curated collections of beautiful books to our community and features hundreds of titles ranging from whimsical picture books to insightful adult reads. One of the highlights of recent Book Fairs have been guest-author events. The Book Fair is a wonderful opportunity to support Beauvoir and the Parents Association, which earns proceeds from each book purchased, and provides a wonderful variety of volunteer opportunities.
Thanksgiving Chapel is one of three all-school chapels that our community celebrates each year in the Washington National Cathedral (see also Christmas Chapel and Closing Chapel). Beauvoir dedicates the Thanksgiving Chapel to introducing grandparents and special friends to the School. Second grade students often play a special part in giving thanks during the ceremony.
Each year, Beauvoir families gather for Christmas Chapel in the Washington National Cathedral before dismissing for winter break. Christmas Chapel is a prayerful celebration featuring music, good cheer and the first graders’ reenactment of the nativity scene.
Global Studies is a school-wide study that explores geographical regions worldwide and celebrates the families and cultures within the school. Each year, students engage in integrated explorations of countries from one of the following geographical areas: Africa, Latin America, Asia, Europe and North America. Global Studies culminates in the creation of interactive exhibits, shared with parents and guests, at Beauvoir’s annual Museum event.
Our scholarship benefit organized by Beauvoir parents enables faculty, staff, parents and supporters to gather as a community and raise critical funds for the school’s financial aid program.
Flower Mart is a Close-wide celebration, with volunteers from every Cathedral institution coming together to raise money for the All Hallows Guild for upkeep of the Cathedral grounds. Beauvoir’s Parents Association runs the rides and children’s section.
The Beauvoir community celebrates its graduating third grade students at the end of the school year during Closing Chapel in the Washington National Cathedral. Closing Chapel includes songs from children of all grades and specifically honors the Third Graders, who carry on a Beauvoir tradition of performing the Maypole Dance in the Great Crossing.
