Alumnae Au Courant February 2017
Alumnae Career Morning On February 2, Elizabeth Tahmincioglu Kassapidis '81 stopped by King Street to speak to the Upper School about her career as a board certified emergency medicine physician. Presently Dr. Kassapidis works within the Yale New Haven Health System at Bridgeport Hospital in the Emergency Department. Her presentation gave the Upper School students, including her daughters, Roxanne '19 & Zoe '20, insight into her career path and the role her Sacred Heart education played in getting her where she is today. Last summer, Dr. Kassapidis hosted two rising seniors as part of our Shadow Program. Click here to read an article written by the King Street Chronicle to learn more about Dr.

Shadow Program Calling all Alumnae! Sacred Heart Greenwich is once again offering the Shadow Program to our Upper School Students this June. The Shadow Program enhances the education of our students by providing first-hand experiences in business, law, medicine, publishing, and many other fields. As an alumna of Sacred Heart Greenwich you have an opportunity to impact the next generation of Sacred Heart graduates. It is our hope that this year we will be able to offer even more Shadow Program opportunities hosted by our extremely diverse alumnae community.
