COMMENCEMENT

COMMENCEMENT 2022 On Friday, June 10th, the Class of 2022 enjoyed one last experience as students at Brooklyn Friends School—their commencement. In front of hundreds of family, friends, and BFS colleagues and Board members, the proud graduates processed across the stage at Pace University’s Schimmel Center. Head of School, Crissy Cáceres, opened the ceremony, followed by messages for the graduates from classmates Delila Lapidus ’22 and Brianna Griffiths ’22, an address by Distinguished Alumni Speaker, Mitch Zeller ’75, and words of

wisdom from colleague speaker, Dr. Jon DeGraff. Guests also enjoyed performances by student musicians, Justin Hohn ’22 and Isaiah Schetelick ’22. The ceremony culminated with the graduates receiving their diplomas from Crissy Cáceres, Chair of the Board of Trustees, Ed Oliver, Head of Upper School, Kamaya Prince Thompson, and Assistant Head of Upper School, Daniel Paccione. After the final diploma was bestowed, the Class of 2022 tossed their caps towards the sky and came together for hugs and cheers.

Congratulations, BFS Class of ’22, we are so proud of you! On the following pages, please enjoy learning a little bit about our graduates, which first appeared as profiles on our social media platforms.
