Meet Our Head of School

Liz Walgamuth, Ed.D., is the driving force behind our school’s remarkable journey to excellence. Having spent over 30 years both in the classroom and leading schools, Dr. Walgamuth is celebrating her 17th year as the Head of Grace School in Houston, Texas. Her commitment to innovation in instruction has transformed the way we educate students.

Since her appointment as Head of School in 2007, Grace School received the first STEM certification in the state of Texas from Cognia, NAEYC certification, and two certified Nature Explore classrooms. Under her leadership, our facilities have undergone a stunning transformation. Her dedication to upgrading our campus has led to state of the art classrooms, common spaces, and STEM labs as well as the construction of the athletic complex and a remodeled library.
