Berkeley Shield Awarded to Interim Head of School Kim Graham Lawless

This year’s final All-School Convocation was a moment we will long remember. We celebrated the Class of 2026, extraordinary young leaders whose achievements and character have left a lasting mark on Berkeley Preparatory School. The ripple effect of their example will be felt in these halls for years to come.

And in a rare and special honor, we were privileged to present the Berkeley Shield to Interim Head of School Kim Graham Lawless. The Berkeley Shield is among the highest distinctions our school bestows and recognizes singular and meritorious service. No one embodies that more fully than Ms. Lawless. Her leadership, dedication, and deep love for this community have guided Berkeley with grace and integrity. 

With pride—Go Bucs!
