Alumni Association Welcome
On behalf of the Rivers Alumni Association, welcome to the Rivers community! We are pleased to have you as part of a special community that is almost 100 years in the making.

When I graduated from Rivers more than 25 years ago, I knew the quality of my experience - the rigorous academics, leadership skills, and friendships I developed - would serve me well both personally and professionally. Today, Rivers has built upon the traditions of “Excellence with Humanity” and remains true to developing students to be future leaders who possess integrity and perseverance. More importantly, Rivers continues to evolve. I am constantly struck by the innovative curriculum, the outstanding faculty who encourage excellence in the classroom and nurture the unique and outstanding qualities of their students, and the leadership that is demonstrated by school administration, faculty, and students.

As Rivers alumni, we serve the important role of offering support and mentorship to the current student body. The vibrant community we create allows us to remain connected and give back to the school. There are many ways to become involved - host an intern in your workplace, offer to be a mentor through the career development network, or participate in the Rivers golf tournament which offers important financial assistance to students to ensure the school remains diverse and accessible regardless of one’s financial background. You can also simply attend the alumni open skates, sign up for the school’s alumni database, or check out Rivers’ Twitter and Facebook pages to share and learn about other alumni. And, of course, your financial support is always welcome!

By being involved in the Alumni Association and giving back to Rivers, we are supporting the academic and social well-being of our future leaders. We are also contributing to a healthy environment where current students can have as rich an experience as we once did. Personally, I have found the more I give, the more I get back in return. I am honored to serve as your President and look forward to welcoming you back to Rivers.
