Class of 1969

April 27th 2019, 22 ladies from the SFA Class of 1969 celebrated together. We celebrated at the Church of the Advent in Brookline. Of course the space was decorated in the blue and gold beautifully by our DeDe Kobosky Metro. DeDe also provided us with a copy of the front page of the Pittsburgh paper from our graduation day, June 1, 1969. We had a great time telling stories from our years at the Academy. We followed up the next day at the 20th Annual Tulip Luncheon.

Class of 1978

We celebrated our 40th Reunion with friendship, laughter & reminiscing of days gone by on t he Lake. It was hard for the 17 of us to believe that it had been 40 years since our graduation from our beloved SFA. In some ways it felt like only yesterday that we were gawky teenagers who thought we knew every- thing On the flip side, it felt good to be older, wiser & appreciate life’s lessons & the women we have become. We look forward to making many more memories together!
