| ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT AND GRATIFYING aspects of life at Crossroads is the enduring relationship that our alumni maintain with the school and with each other. Alumni participate in Ten and Twenty Year Reunions, as well as alternating East and West Coast Reunions. Other events aimed specifically at alumni have included the Alumni Art Show,
the Alumni Concert, and the All-Class Alumni
Picnic. Alums are also included in several school-wide events such as the dedication of the K-12 Sports Center, the annual Alley Party, and the annual Parent Association Spring Event. Recently formed Alumni Advisory Council is charged with expanding our alumni program and developing more activities and events to strengthen the involvement of Crossroads alumni in the daily life of the school. We are especially proud of the very first activity that was created by Crossroads alumni in 1994, the Change-A-Life Alumni Financial Aid Fund. Our alums chose to embark on an annual fundraising campaign, the proceeds of which benefit financial aid. There is no greater example of the School Philosophy then former students helping deserving young people gain access to a Crossroads education. And no greater confirmation that our founding principles of diversity, inclusion, and commitment to community remain with our students as they move into the larger world. CROSSROADS ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The purpose of the Alumni Association is to strengthen, broaden, and deepen the alumni-school connection; to extend the community of the school in a supportive and active way through programs, school and community activities, and events which embody the philosophy of Crossroads School; and to actively support the Alumni Financial Aid Fund. The Alumni Association invites and encourages all alums to participate in Crossroads' multi-faceted community life in ways that correspond to their interests and are in concert with the needs and goals of the school.
