This past weekend, we welcomed the Class of 2026 into the Pace alumni community. 🎓 As we continue to celebrate our graduates, we’re also looking back on those who came before them—the Classes of 2016, 2006, 1996, 1986 and 1976.
Whether it’s been 10 years or 50, you’ll always be part of the Pace community. Today, we’re thinking of all our alumni and the journeys that began on graduation day.

They’ve still got it! The annual Alumni Lacrosse Game was a thriller and ended in a hard-fought alumni victory. More than 25 former players returned to the fields to relive their glory days. Thanks to everyone who spent Saturday morning at Riverview Sports Complex cheering on the Knights—past and present!

The Alumni Social was a Howell-ing good time! 🎊From the 70s to the 2020s, it was incredible to bring generations of Pace alumni together for one unforgettable night. Beautiful evening, even better company, and signature cocktails to top it all off. Thank you to everyone who came out and continues to stay connected —it truly means so much! 💙 ⚔️
What does it take to be one of the top debate teams in the country? 🗣️ Just ask seniors Zaki George and Arnav Maddineni, who are headed to the University of Kentucky for the J.W. Patterson Tournament of Champions—the Super Bowl of high school debate.
Following a dominant season in which they racked up five bids at the nation’s toughest tournaments, Zaki and Arnav are leading our program through its most successful run in more than a decade. Fresh off a fifth-place finish at the NDCA National Championship, they’re looking to follow in the footsteps of Bob Allen ’02 and Brian Smith ’02, the last Pace duo to bring home the TOC trophy.
To celebrate their journey, we’re taking you behind the scenes to see what Pace debate is all about. Good luck, Knights!

The Advancement Team had a wonderful time planning and leading our Middle School Minimester course, Give Back, Make Change!
We kicked off the week at Inspire Brands, where we connected with Chief of Staff Jack Walsh ’16. Amid field trips and service projects with Urban Recipe, the Center for Hard to Recycle Materials (CHaRM) and Intown Cares, students enjoyed lunch on the Beltline at Glide Pizza, owned and operated by Rob Birdsong ’00.
It was an inspiring week of learning, service and alumni connections — and we already can’t wait for next year’s Minimester!

This past Friday, we welcomed alumni to our inaugural Alumni in Leadership Luncheon, a gathering that will take place every other year and offers alumni the opportunity to reconnect, exchange ideas and engage in thoughtful conversation about the future of our Alumni Association.
The group included those who have served on the Alumni Board, Alumni Scholar Committee or the Board of Trustees, as well as those who have participated in Leadership Pace. We’re excited to continue welcoming alumni into this community in the years ahead—look for information about Leadership Pace 2027, coming soon.
Thanks to everyone who spent their Friday afternoon with us. We truly appreciate your time, energy and continued commitment to Pace! Special thanks to our panelists: Chair of the Board of Trustees Elizabeth Correll Richards, Ex-Officio Alumni Board President and panel moderator Meredith Winitt Forrester ’95, Alumni Board President Jason Lee ’96, Director of Equity and Inclusion Bria Samuels ’13 and Upper School teacher and dean Ben Ewing ’06. We are grateful for your leadership!
