Reunion
We are thrilled to welcome you back to the schoolhouse for Reunion 2013! Join us for a weekend of spirit and nostalgia for all alumnae on May 17 and 18, 2013, which will offer you the opportunity to reconnect with old classmates, relive old memories, and make some new ones! In addition to class-specific festivities on Saturday, May 18, Friday's schedule includes a number of events for all alumnae, including classes, panels, and a cocktail party honoring Kitty Gordan.
All interested alumnae are also invited to be a part of the alumnae chorus, which will rehearse at the schoolhouse at 5:45 p.m. on Thursday, May 16 for a performance at the cocktail party the next evening.
We look forward to seeing (and hearing) you later this spring!
