Grace Tibbits
I am thrilled to be teaching Language Arts and Math at Ascend. I’ve always had a deep love for learning, and my favorite thing in the world is to share that love with everyone I can. I had the wonderful opportunity of receiving a classical education as a child and teen, and studied the greatest works of philosophy, history, and literature, as well as classical geometry, mathematics, and Latin. I also studied Psychology and Political Science at Boise State University and graduated with my Bachelor’s Degree in May of 2023. In my free time I love to read, rock climb, go for long walks, and spend time with my family.
