After a rewarding practicum experience at Amelia Earhart, Grace McDonald is thrilled to return and begin her teaching career in a community she already loves and admires. One of her favorite educational quotes—“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world” (Nelson Mandela)—reflects her belief in the transformative power of learning.

Grace is originally from Sacramento, California. She’s a fan of all things Disney and a lover of the beach. She enjoys soccer, pickleball, singing, and playing the piano. Her favorite foods are Dr. Pepper and pizza. She’s also looking forward to an exciting summer as she prepares for her upcoming June wedding!

Grace is excited to return to Amelia Earhart Elementary, and we are pleased she has chosen to join our team. We are confident she will be an asset to our school. We are delighted to welcome Grace McDonald to the Amelia Earhart Elementary team for the upcoming school year!
