Alumni Association

List of 2 items.

  • Mission

    • The ÃÈÃÃÉçÇøaratory School Alumni Association (“SHPAA”) seeks to continue building upon the strong bond and foundation already existing between ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø and its students by organizing and facilitating events, connections, and networks to actively foster the Brotherhood associated with graduating from The Prep. SHPAA is driven by a shared passion for ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø and a collective desire to give back to the institution that has and continues to give so much to its current and former students. SHPAA will create a legacy that can be passed on for generations by formally structuring and codifying a group of committed alumni to help carry out ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø’s mission to provide a stellar education to a promising group of young men who will one day become alumni themselves.
  • Purpose

    • To provide continued support and maintain a connection between ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø as an institution and ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø’s current and former students for the purpose of strengthening ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø’s legacy and offering support for the overall growth of ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø’s reach.
    • To maintain and build upon the naturally formed bond between the alumni of ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø and share in common support of ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø and its programs, goals, and needs.
    • To serve as an intermediary between ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø and alumni, connecting the two and providing updates, information, and events for gathering to effectuate the mission statement set forth above.
