There’s something special about Baccalaureate bringing the journey full circle. 🌿
This evening we came together for a time of reflection, worship, and celebration with students and their families. The Cutting of the Ivy brings us back to Twining of the Ivy during Orientation weekend, where the journey at Bushnell began.
See you tomorrow morning, graduates!

It’s Finals Week, and our students are hard at work finishing strong. 📚✨
We checked in to see if they’ve got the knowledge to answer questions related to their majors as they study up.
Keep up the great work, Beacons! You’ve got this!

For 130 years, our academic year has concluded with a celebration of all our students have accomplished.
In this month’s 130-year anniversary reflection, just ahead of this year’s Spring Commencement, we’re looking back on the tradition of celebrating our graduates as they receive their degrees. It marks the culmination of their time at Bushnell, and we love seeing how caps and gowns have remained a constant throughout our history.
We look forward to adding Spring Commencement 2026 to that legacy next week!
