The start of the 2024-2025 academic year is right around the corner, so the Alumni Office has spent much of the summer planning the upcoming fall events.
One of the most festive happenings each fall is HM’s Homecoming and Reunions Celebration, which this year takes place on Saturday, October 19th from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM. It truly is one of the most invigorating afternoons on campus, as alumni reconnect with each other, their school, and teachers and coaches while cheering the Lions on to victory. We hope you will join us on campus (bring the family!) for this much-loved tradition, which will include:
- A full slate of athletics contests (specific schedule TBD).
- Parents Association-sponsored carnival of games for all ages.
- Terrific HM swag for free and for purchase.
- Complimentary barbecue lunch from noon to 3:00 PM.
- Campus tours led by student ambassadors at noon and 2:30 PM.
- The 50th Reunion Luncheon of the Class of 1974.
- Demonstrations by HM Robotics.
- Exhibitions in Fisher Gallery and the Horace Mann School Archives (TBD).
Later in the evening, the classes of 1964, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1989, 1994, 1999, 2004, 2009, 2014, and 2019 will celebrate their reunions in Manhattan. (The 55th Reunion of the Class of 1969 will be held on October 1st, while 1959 celebrated its 65th Reunion on June 1, 2024.) If you are celebrating a reunion year and have a question, please contact Maggie Matthews at (718) 432-3452.
We hope to see you at Homecoming on October 19th. In the meantime, enjoy what’s left of summer!
Warm regards,
