• Registration Now

Dear Classmates: It’s hard to believe that the 45th anniversary of our graduation from U-High is almost here! We hope you will join us over the weekend of June 6-7 to revisit friendships and memories of Lab.

In addition to our class Reunion Dinner on Saturday, June 7, Lab has planned two All-Alumni Events. We encourage you to include at least one of them in your weekend schedule. At these gatherings, you’ll have a chance to walk the halls at Lab, see old teachers, have your photo taken for the official class picture and reminisce on what it means to be an alumnus of the Laboratory Schools.

Our Reunion wouldn’t be complete without saying “thank you” with a class gift. But we all know that a fun and meaningful reunion is all about who participates, so we encourage you to register early, and use our online tool to see who is coming. If you are in touch with someone you can encourage to attend, or know how to reach someone on the missing classmates list, please contact them. And be sure to submit your entry for our class Memory Book.

Also, if we don’t have a good email or contact information for you, please let us know. Take a moment to update this information on the web site, or with one of us! See you in June! We can’t wait to see you!

Class Gift

Most of us remember our experience at Lab and/or U-High as the most formative of our lives. To mark this important milestone, we are planning a class gift to the Laboratory Schools. How much to give? It's impossible to put a value on the lifetime of learning and friendships that our U-High years gave us. Gifts of all sizes are welcome and appreciated, and donors of $1000 or more will be recognized as members of the DePencier Society, Lab’s donor recognition society for Alumni. You may also choose to make your gift in memory or honor of a former classmate or teacher.
