Alumni Weekend 2014

More than 150 alumni, plus spouses, children, and some former faculty, attended the weekend, which included class reunions (for classes ending in 4 or 9), tours of the school, an evening banquet, children’s activities, and complimentary admission to the Bethany boys soccer game (a 3-1 win over rival Westview).
