Last Friday, Buckley alumni and their families took over Kahlo NYC for an evening of laughs, conversation, and reconnection. Twinkling chandeliers, vibrant décor, and delicious food and drinks set the scene as friends’ old and new swapped stories, caught up with teachers, and made new connections. A huge thank you to our gracious hosts, Buckley parents Paula and Fernando Lopez P ‘23 and ‘32, and the Kahlo team for making everyone feel so at home!
We welcomed a very special Head of School for the day today, Buckley third grader Holden!![]()
