Greetings!   

 

Happy fall to one and all! We hope you had a wonderful summer. Ours was pretty quiet here at Harley, except for a fantastic Reunion celebration with the Class of 1963. 

 

We are especially happy to see the students and faculty roaming the halls again for Harley's 96th year in session. We have a lot planned for the fall, so read on and enjoy this edition of Harley's alumni newsletter.

Class of 1963's 50th Reunion

The class of 1963 celebrated their 50th Reunion on August 23 and 24. We hosted about 1/3 of the class on Friday night at Rochester's Good Luck restaurant and on Saturday they were treated to a tour of the school, including the new Commons building, and lunch. We rounded off the evening with a wonderful boat ride on the Sam Patch in Pittsford.

 

We are so glad that the class members were able to rekindle friendships, renew appreciation for their Harley education, and celebrate time together at The Harley School.
