Educational Background
Grenchik holds a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (K-6) and Reading (K-12) from East Carolina University. Her academic training provided the foundation for a long and impactful career in the classroom.
Professional Experience
Now a retired teacher, Grenchik spent a significant portion of her career serving the community at St. Francis Xavier Catholic School in Gettysburg. Her tenure at a Delone Catholic partner school gives her a unique perspective on the educational pipeline and the developmental needs of students transitioning into high school.
Board Service and Leadership
Having joined the School Board in 2023, Grenchik chairs the Solidarity and Belonging committee and is actively involved in shaping Delone Catholic's future. She also serves as the Domain Chair for Catholic Identity within the school’s new strategic planning initiative, Timeless Excellence: Our Next Chapter.

- Solidarity and Belonging | As a multi-cultural parent, she is a strong advocate for a school culture rooted in Catholic Social Teaching. She strives to ensure that every student, family, and faculty member feels valued, supported, and connected.
- Alumni Engagement | Having seen five of her own children graduate from DCHS, Sherry is passionate about re-engaging the alumni community. She believes that under David Staub's current leadership, the school is well-positioned to strengthen these lifelong connections.
- Strategic Growth | She views the Board as a collection of talented, dedicated individuals working thoughtfully to help DCHS thrive during a pivotal new chapter in its history.
