Tickets are still on sale for our 21st Annual Gala & Auction on April 25 at Crimson DC’s Whisky Bar at 627 H Street NW. Don’t miss this unforgettable evening of great food, music, and community in support of our school!

Join us for “A Night at the Shepherd Savoy,” a stylish, jazz-inspired celebration, and be sure to grab your tickets before sales close on April 15th*. Guests who wish to embrace the theme may opt for Art Deco–inspired prints, bold geometric patterns, and rich jewel tones; otherwise, cocktail attire is perfectly appropriate. Festive accessories will be available at the event to add a touch of flair.

Curious about the menu? Check it out here and here.

You can also support by donating auction items, sponsoring the event, or purchasing a Teacher & Staff Appreciation Ticket.

If the ticket price feels out of reach, we warmly invite you to volunteer. We’re seeking helpers for short 45-60 minute shifts during the event, and volunteers will receive complimentary admission as our thanks. Please email our Gala committee with your interest. 

More information can be found on our website. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

*The ticket sale deadline has been moved up a day to accommodate a headcount deadline for the venue. 

Shepherd's Third Annual Softball Game is set, and we are now recruiting players. This is a friendly game, and no practice or experience is necessary -- just your best Shepherd spirit! This year, each team (Team Green and Team Gold) will be a mix of parents/caregivers and faculty/staff so that we have more opportunities for folks to collaborate and cheer each other on. 

Last year, the teams filled quickly -- so nab your spot today! Registration is first-come, first-served. Please note, while we may have some kids pinch-hitting (and we definitely want them cheering everyone on!), the teams are for grown-ups only. :)

A few logistical notes:

• Please note which team you've signed on for and wear the appropriate color (gold or green) t-shirt, baseball cap, etc if you have one. We'll also have gold and green bandanas available for anyone who needs a little "something extra" to denote which team you're on. 
• If you have extra gear (bats and gloves in particular) please bring it!
• We will have pinch hitters for anyone who doesn't want to hit.
• Bottled water will be provided for players.
• Feel free to bring your own chairs for the sideline.
• Stand by for more details about rain date, etc!

If you have questions, please message Jessie.caola@k12.dc.gov. Sign up here today!
