All alumni are invited to attend the 2018 Currier Lecture on Tuesday, March 6 at 6:30 p.m. in our dining hall. This year's lecture will feature the Community Refugee and Immigration Services ( CRIS) agency and its Executive Director Angela Plummer and Program Manager Tara Dhungana next month. The lecture series was founded in memory of Phil Currier, former head of Academy's Upper School and father of David Currier '02, whose zest for life overshadowed his untimely death in 1995. Its mission is to bring to Columbus Academy speakers whose lives and experiences exhibit self-challenge, provoke thought and are agents of positive change.

All alumni are invited to attend Alumni Weekend, featuring reunion classes ending in 3 and 8, which will be held on September 14-17, 2018.

A detailed schedule will be announced in the upcoming months but mark your calendars now!

The 10th Annual Columbus Academy Golf Outing will take place on Monday, September 17, 2018 with a 1:00 p.m. shotgun start at Columbus Country Club.
