Continuing our ND Student Spotlight Series, we are excited to highlight Gracie K., who has kept herself incredibly busy as a dedicated leader and performer during her time at Notre Dame!
Since 6th grade, she has been a staple of the Dance Company and a leader for SpeakUp, while also serving as the Secretary of the National Honor Society, co-president of French Club, and a member of the Mock Trial team and Honor Corps. For Gracie, the unmatched sisterhood and ND’s commitment to service, especially her mentorship work with the Tiger Woods Foundation, have shaped her experience just as much as her time in the classroom.
She is especially proud of her historic achievement in dance, having co-choreographer “Piano Man,” the first student-choreographed piece from Notre Dame to ever be selected for the National High School Dance Festival. The piece even earned the Meritorious Student Choreography Award, marking a major milestone in her journey as a dancer and creator.
This fall, Gracie will head to Saint Joseph's University as an International Business major in the Honors Program. We are so proud of all she has accomplished and can’t wait to see the impact she makes as a Hawk!
