And we're off! Alumni Weekend and Reunion 2025 officially kicked off with an appearance by our Young Alum of the Year, Hayley Dennings '18, at Upper School assembly today.

Hayley read an excerpt from her debut and NYT bestselling novel, This Ravenous Fate, and answered questions from our student moderators. She has already proven to be an inspiration to all of our budding young authors. Congratulations, Hayley!

We look forward to celebrating with many more of our alumni over the next two days of events!
