  Alumni Day 2024 Recap

  Alumni Day 2024 

  Alumni Day brought together nearly 500 alumni, their families, and former and current faculty and coaches and was filled with incredible energy and spirit as we celebrated 125 years of Hackley. The campus was alive with laughter, friends reconnecting, and stories shared across generations of Hornets. Relive the day by checking out the Alumni Day photo highlights in the full photo gallery. Watch videos here from the HAA morning meeting and Memorial Service. Highlights included the State of the School address by Charles Franklin; an HAA update from President Christie Philbrick-Wheaton; the distinguished awards ceremony where we inducted Frances Hackley as an Honorary Alumna, presented Doris Jackson posthumously with the Impact Award; and surprised Haleh Tavakol ’84 with the Alumni Service Award and a moving memorial service. We can’t wait to welcome alumni back next year for another unforgettable Alumni Day! We will share the date soon.
