What a morning! If you were on campus for commencement for the class of 2026, you know it was extremely special. Congratulations to all our graduates and their families! Alumni, drop a comment and welcome them to the alumni community.

Hardy Travel Grants were awarded to Heather York and Ann Haggerty. These grants were established in 2000 in memory of George Hardy ‘87 by his parents to honor the faculty for the impact they had on their son while he was a student at Watkinson. These awards are earmarked for teachers with extended years of service to Watkinson, 5+ and 10+ years of service respectively.

Our celebration of years of service continues today as we acknowledge the extraordinary work and professional longevity of Nathan Herzog and Christina Muro! 💙🤍🐏👏
