Alumni

Welcome, Alumni!

 

At Buckley, our alumni are a vital part of our community, and we are proud of the many accomplishments they achieve in their personal and professional lives. Whether you’re looking to reconnect with old friends or make new connections, we offer a variety of opportunities to engage with both Buckley and fellow alumni.

 

Through Buckley Country Day Connect, our exclusive networking platform, alumni can seek mentors, share career opportunities, and offer guidance to others. We also host annual reunion events including the NYC Gathering for Alumni Families & Faculty every February, March Madness, and the Fall Fair in October, where alumni come together to continue the Buckley tradition of camaraderie. If you’re ever in the area, we invite you to visit and take a tour of the campus—just reach out to me to arrange your visit!

 

For those who want to reminisce, Buckley’s digital archive holds a treasure trove of yearbooks, photos, and more. And with our Class Agent program, you can stay up-to-date with the latest happenings at Buckley and share your own updates with the community. We love hearing from you, and we welcome your contributions to Spotlight, our community magazine that highlights alumni news and accomplishments.

 

As a cherished part of our Buckley family, alumni are also encouraged to support the Alumni Endowment Fund—a meaningful way to give back, invest in Buckley, and ensure that future generations of students benefit from the same excellent education and experiences that shaped you.

 

Thank you for being part of Buckley’s legacy—we can’t wait to hear what’s next for you!
