Alumni Class Agents

A HUGE thank you to our Class Agents who work so hard every year to keep their classes connected to the School and Abbey! They plan reunions, collect Class Notes for the Continuum, encourage their fellow alumni to attend events, and raise money for the Alumni Scholarship Drive.

Last night, the School hosted the Class Agents at Top Golf to show our appreciation for all they do and to get them up to speed for this coming year. We were thrilled to be at Top Golf and support alumnus Artie Starrs ’94 who was named the CEO of Top Golf just this past March. Kudos, Class Agents!

Clean Water Supplies

Students in Forms VI and VII packed clean water supplies, including water bottles and iodine tablets, along with hygiene products such as soap and hand sanitizer, to be sent to communities around the world where access to clean water is limited.
