Senior Parents Gather for Celebration

Senior Class parents gathered together in the new year on Thursday evening, January 26, on Dalton’s 14th floor to kick off the beginning of many celebratory Senior Class events, introduce the Senior Class Gift, and share fundraising updates.
Head of School José M. De Jesús thanked the Senior Class Gift Chairs Jessica Barkoff, Nandita Glazer, and Sandy Mancini for leading this effort with the help of the Senior Class Gift Committee: Hilary Addington, Melissa Beyer, Miriam Challenger, Ellis Wood & Peter Nakada, Kulsoom Saeed, Lori & Zachary Schreiber, and Tanya Taylor. 

As a parent of a recent high school senior, José humorously commiserated with parents about having mixed feelings as their children approach the end of their Dalton student journey. He also shared that the Senior Class Gift’s thoughtful choice – “Class of 2023 Endowed Financial Assistance Fund” – resonated with him personally as he received financial assistance as a student. 

Volunteers will be reaching out to fellow parents in the coming weeks and hope that all Senior parents will support the Class of 2023’s legacy gift. To contribute to the Senior Class Gift and Annual Fund online, visit www.dalton.org/makeagift, where you can indicate what percentage of your donation should be allocated between the Class Gift and Annual Fund.
