They’ve unpacked, found the dining hall, said their goodbyes, and now it is time: the Class of 2026 is starting college.

There may be moments of uncertainty, but we know they are ready. At Perkiomen, they’ve learned to seek opportunities, navigate challenges, build relationships, take risks, and advocate for themselves. They graduated with the skills, confidence, and resilience to take on what comes next.

Perkiomen families, share your advice for parents sending a student to college, or tell us about a moment when you realized, “They’ve got this.” We’d love to hear your stories and cheer on the Class of 2026 together. 💜💛 🎉

Congratulations to faculty member and Perkiomen alumnus Kyle Ramseur ’18, whose art is currently featured in Fabrication of the Soul at Zo Gallery in Baltimore, MD. Fabrication of the Soul is a multimedia group exhibition examining the intricate relationships between humanity and the environment through the lenses of identity, heritage, and diaspora.

Mr. Ramseur’s work reflects the creativity, curiosity, and willingness to take risks that we hope to inspire in every Perkiomen student. We’re excited to see one of our own artists sharing his work with the broader arts community.
