Alumni Children

Four members of the Class of 1989 are now Foote School parents, with eight children spread across Grades 2–8 (and one graduated). They are among the 44 children of alumni currently attending Foote. We gathered the ’89 alums and their children for a photo and asked each to name their favorite Foote memory, tradition or activity.

Graham Possick ’23: When the birds of prey visited in second grade Sarah Netter Boone ’89: Field Day. Go Grey! Felix Boone ’25: Field Day.
