Join us for the Upper Elementary Cultural Fair on Thursday, February 27, right after carpool in Pecore Hall! (Please check in at the office first.)

Since November, our students have been immersed in the study of Asia—exploring its history, geography, government, art, music, culture, and cuisine. This beloved annual tradition transforms Pecore Hall into a multimedia museum experience, where students showcase their research and creativity in an interactive and engaging way.

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to celebrate their hard work and gain a deeper appreciation for the rich and diverse cultures of Asia!

On Friday, February 28, SSESH students will celebrate our Annual Karen Soh Snow Day, a beloved school tradition created by Karen Soh, a cherished member of our community. Since her passing in 2020, we have honored her legacy by continuing this special event, bringing real snow to campus for students to enjoy during the school day.

Children will have the opportunity to play in the snow and take turns going down the snow slide. Please send your child to school with mittens and winter accessories so they can fully enjoy the experience. This is a student-only event, and we look forward to another magical day of winter fun! ❄️⛄💙

St. Stephen’s Episcopal School is thrilled to welcome Kate Hicks as our new school counselor. Kate holds a Master’s degree in social development from the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. With over a decade of experience in education, she has served as a bilingual elementary teacher, administrator, and counselor, working in public, charter, and private schools both in the United States and abroad.

A proud Houstonian, Kate loves the diversity of the Montrose community, where she lives with her husband and their four children—two girls and two boys, ages 11, 9, 7, and 3—all of whom attend school in the neighborhood. She considers her children to be her greatest teachers. Their family enjoys traveling but especially loves hopping on the light rail near their home to catch Astros games downtown. They also share a love for backyard farming and appreciate that their neighbors don’t mind their 12 chickens!

Kate is excited to bring her passion for student well-being to SSESH and looks forward to supporting our students and families this year.

For any questions for Ms. Kate, please email [email protected]
