Forman School Commencement 2026 - 5.30.26

Last night, our soon-to-be graduates were treated to a special dinner served by senior administrators. The celebration continued at Senior Appreciation Night, which included the presentation of senior gifts and remarks from our All-School Officers.

Congratulations to Bennett ’26, the Class of 2026 Salutatorian, who delivered a meaningful speech, reflecting how dyslexia taught him the value of persistence, patience, and asking for help. Most importantly, Bennett shared how his experiences showed him the importance of learning from others, seeking support and perspective from mentors and role models, and, in turn, becoming that source of support for others.

We also applaud Isabella ’26, Rebecca ’26, Leo ’26, Bella ’26, and Jessica ’26, who were announced as the 2026 Class Agents. As ambassadors, they will represent Forman for years to come!

We are excited to share that the 2025-2026 Yearbook has been dedicated to Director of Counseling Charlene Halloran P’05, P’07.

“Throughout her time at Forman, Mrs. Halloran has been a source of care, compassion, and guidance for generations of students,” the dedication reads in part. “Beginning her career as a teacher in the Learning Center and later becoming Director of Counseling in 1994, she has devoted herself to supporting the emotional health and well-being of every student.”
