What a fun way to welcome everyone back!

Last night’s Family Welcome Back Event was filled with trivia, mini golf, chess, Lite-Brite, and plenty of time to laugh, play, and reconnect. It was so much fun to see our community together as we kicked off a new school year.

Thank you to everyone who joined us! Here’s to a wonderful year ahead.

And just like that, we’re back! A new school year is officially underway at St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s.

Yesterday, we welcomed all of our students back for the first day of school. Students in Grades 1-8 gathered in Gordon Chapel for Convocation, one of our cherished annual traditions. Reverend Anne-Marie Witchger was joined by five community clergy members as we came together to celebrate the religious diversity of our community and offer a blessing for the year ahead.

The first day is always a special one, and it was great to see our students and families back on campus. We’re excited for another great year at St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s and all that’s ahead!

St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s marked America’s 250th anniversary by ringing bells at 2:50 p.m. on Independence Day. From near and far, our families shared videos of their own bell-ringing celebrations, making it a special way for our community to take part together.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend and is enjoying a fun, relaxing summer!

Another unforgettable St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s Summer Camp has come to a close!

Over the past two weeks, campers stayed busy with hands-on science experiments, tie-dye creations, basketball, water activities, fun lunches, a talent show, and so much more. Camp was filled with new experiences, lasting memories, and plenty of summer fun.

Thank you to our campers, counselors, and staff for making this year’s Summer Camp such a success. We hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the summer - we’ll see you next year!

Joined by family members, faculty, trustees, and friends, our eighth grade students were recognized for their accomplishments and the many contributions they have made during their time at St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s.

As they prepare to begin their high school journeys, we congratulate them on this milestone and look forward to all that lies ahead. We are incredibly proud of the Class of 2026 and wish them every success in the years to come.

This morning, students in grades 6-8 gathered for our annual Sports Breakfast to celebrate an incredible year of athletics, including four NYCAL Championships in girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, and boys volleyball.

We were honored to welcome alumna Kate Carman ’16 as our guest speaker. Kate shared her journey from collegiate volleyball standout to a professional athlete in Europe, inspiring our student-athletes to pursue excellence on and off the court.

Students were recognized for their achievements throughout the year, and our three-sport athletes were honored with St. Hilda’s & St. Hugh’s sweatpants in recognition of their dedication across all three seasons. We thank our coaches for their unwavering support and wish our eighth graders the best of luck in their high school athletic careers. We look forward to seeing our returning athletes back in action next year!
