Alumnae Welcome
Living Lives of Purpose and Impact
Hockaday Alumnae are living out the School’s mission in the world: they are resilient, confident women who are educated and inspired to lead lives of purpose and impact. Through the Hockaday Alumnae Association, generations of women stay connected to support the school and strengthen the bonds formed by their years at Hockaday.Hockaday’s network of more than 9,000 Alumnae is a thriving, worldwide network that supports new Alumnae long after they walk across Commencement Terrace. Recent Hockaday graduates can always contact fellow Alumnae with questions about colleges and careers to ensure they have good advice and guidance when they are in a new city, or exploring a new field or industry. Through ongoing updates, events like the Fall Alumnae Cocktail Party and Alumnae Weekend, the Hockaday Alumnae in the Arts (HAARTS) program, and an active Alumnae Board, the School stays connected to its Alumnae, who know the friendships they’ve forged during their years at Hockaday will last a lifetime.
