Wellness Speakers Engage Kent Denver Community

The past week has brought two amazing guest speakers to campus to talk with students, as well as parents and guardians. Former professional basketball player Dan Grunfeld joined us on January 29 to share his family’s story of hope and resilience—traced from Auschwitz to the NBA.

Ethan Kross, an award-winning professor, was on campus Monday for a presentation to Upper School students during assembly and an evening program for the community. He emphasized that success is determined less by physical capability and more by mental management.

The Kent Denver community can watch both wellness speaker presentations on the Parent Portal. Our 2025-26 Scobie Institute for Wellness Speaker Series concludes on Monday, March 9 as we welcome Dr. Lisa Damour, a renowned clinical psychologist who helps teens and their families navigate the complex emotional landscape of adolescence.
