Message from the ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT
Welcome, Alumnae!
On behalf of the Alumnae Board, I would like to welcome you to the 2022-2023 school year! We hope that you continue to connect and rediscover all that Roland Park Country School has meant to you through all these years. Your involvement is so important to the future success and sustainability of RPCS. I encourage and hope that you will forever and always feel a strong connection to our school, valuing the education you received and the time you spent as a student. I am looking forward to once again being on campus witnessing the magical spirit that is RPCS. Serving on the Alumnae Board and participating in many events at school over the past 13 years has provided me a deep connection to the place that I credit for shaping me into the person I am today, both personally and professionally. There are no words to describe how honored I am to be the President of an association that represents such amazing women whose level of accomplishments is astonishing.
Please join us for these events during the 2022-2023 school year:
- Opening Day Convocation — Thursday, September 1, 2022 (1:20-2:20 pm)

For those of you who are not able to make it to Baltimore this year, you are invited to attend one of several Alumnae Regional Reunions and hear about all the exciting happenings on campus (Dates to be determined). If there is not a regional gathering in your city this year, maybe you will consider hosting an event for fellow alumnae in your area!
We would appreciate your participation in our annual Alumnae Charleston Wrap Fundraiser which includes quality gift wrap items, products for the kitchen and home, electronic gadgets, and an amazing array of personalized items for all your holiday, gift, and household needs. Proceeds go directly to the school in the form of Endowment, Scholarship Funds, Post Prom, and tangible gifts. Look for an email in mid-September with all the details!
Please consider a gift to the Annual Fund. All gifts, regardless of the size, truly make an impact. When RPCS applies for outside funding that is so crucial to the success of the school, Alumnae participation is so important! Your financial support helps to ensure that current and future generations of RPCS students have the necessary resources to chart a bold course and become the future leaders of tomorrow.
No matter how far life has taken you or what corner of the globe you live, please remember you will always have a place in the heart of Roland Park. I look forward to seeing you soon!
