Dear Alumnae:
Welcome to the alumnae section of the St. Mary’s Episcopal School website! I hope you will find it to be a useful resource to stay connected to your classmates and your alma mater and to learn about what is going on at St. Mary’s today. St. Mary’s offers its Alumnae opportunities to gain the personal and professional satisfaction that comes with a close association of like-minded women and an opportunity to share in the future of the School.
Today, more than 2,460 alumnae live in 48 states and 18 countries around the world and enjoy a wide range of careers. St. Mary’s graduates can be found practicing medicine or law, designing couture clothing, accomplishing architectural feats, teaching and preaching. Each month, alumnae chapel speakers return to the Church of the Holy Communion to address the student body about their life’s journeys after leaving St. Mary’s.
St. Mary’s encourages each alumna to stay in touch, and lend her gifts, talents, time, and resources to support our truly distinguished School. Currently, nine alumnae serve on the St. Mary’s Episcopal School Board of Trustees, and for the first time in the School’s long history, an alumna now serves as Chairman of the Board. We salute Brooke Morrow ’74 for continuing to serve in a leadership role for her alma mater!
The 2006-2007 fundraising efforts of St. Mary's alumnae are to be commended, as well. Last year, 25 percent of alumnae gave $219,783 to the Annual Fund. Both in terms of leadership and giving, alumnae have been instrumental in generating results for the current capital campaign. Of the $25.4 million raised, 184 alumnae have given more than $2.9 million.
Opportunities abound for you to have fun, rekindle old friendships, and socialize with other St. Mary’s graduates. Whether it is at an out-of-town gathering, luncheons with the Head of School, or through class reunions at alumnae weekend, we encourage you to remain connected with your alma mater. Alumnae can also stay informed with St. Mary’s Alumnae Online Directory and bimonthly electronic newsletter.
Please feel free to contact me or any of the Alumnae Board members if you have any questions or suggestions or are interested in getting involved.
