Do you remember where you were on this day last year? It is the one-year anniversary of the 500-person gathering in the gym to save Rosati-Kain. Guess what?!? Your presence mattered and we stayed open!
Your presence still matters! We cannot thank you enough for all you did to get us here. We also recognize that many of you wanted to help but the crisis prevented the organization of helpers. Well, we are ready for you now! And we really need you--now, more than ever! We are one month into school and this beautiful building is brimming with gifted, engaged, and enthusiastic young women. We have much to celebrate and still so much work to do.
Our President, Dr. Maggie Sullivan, will update you on school operations, including admissions, academics, and fundraising efforts. Please be part of this movement to keep Rosati-Kain open FOREVER! The State of the School Address will be held in the Gym.
A Wine and Cheese Reception for Alumnae will follow in the Commons.
