Alumni Weekend 2014

The 6th annual alumni weekend was held Sept. 27, 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).
