Reunion 2025
What an incredible weekend—over 175 alumni and faculty from Allendale, Columbia, and Allendale Columbia Schools—joined us at the All-Alumni Cocktail Party.
A highlight of the weekend was honoring Rob Ward ’85 with the 2025 Distinguished Alumni Award. His heartfelt remarks reminded us all why AC continues to hold such a meaningful place in our lives—and why giving back matters. You can check out photos from the celebration here.
Reunion was especially touching as we toured the former Columbia School and heard firsthand stories from alumnae who brought the building’s history to life. Moments like these remind us that AC is not just a school—it’s a community built on connection, tradition, and shared experience.
Your continued support—whether through giving, volunteering, or staying engaged—means the world to us. If you’re interested in getting more involved, I’d love to hear from you! There are many ways to reconnect and contribute, and I’d be happy to help you find the one that’s right for you.
Please know our doors are always open. Come by for a visit, take a tour, grab lunch, and catch up with familiar faces.
