ALUMNI GATHERINGS FAR & WIDE

WHILE RESTRICTIONS DUE TO THE PANDEMIC CONTINUED TO IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO HOST IN-PERSON EVENTS, CONNECTING WITH OUR ALUMNI REMAINED A PRIORITY AND, THROUGH A SERIES OF ONLINE EVENTS, THEY CAME TOGETHER FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE WORLD.

FORMER BOARD MEMBERS EVENT

On June 22, 17 former Board members and five former chairs came together virtually for an update on developments at LCC. Each Board member played a significant role in helping to define key strategic objectives for LCC, and we welcomed their insights and feedback on current issues and priorities. It was uplifting to see so many people who had dedicated themselves to LCC.

ASK THE HEAD EVENT

Last May, alumni joined the Head of School, Chris Shannon (Pre-U ’76), as he presented a summary of the latest happenings on and off Royal Avenue, and how the LCC community rallied together to complete a successful school year amidst the global pandemic. He touched upon all areas of school life and brought alumni up to speed, leaving everyone in attendance feeling proud of their alma mater.

LCC FAM JAM

Over 450 participants — parents, students, faculty, staff and alumni — attended the first annual LCC Fam Jam, an evening of entertainment for the entire family.

Kris Letang of the Pittsburgh Penguins made a cameo appearance to kick off the event. He was followed by hosts Mark Pascal ’92 (Photo 2) (also an LCC parent), and Megan Clarke ’07 (Photo 3), who guided the community through the evening’s program. The Royals, LCC’s faculty and staff band, rocked the first part of the night away along with several other masked performers. The evening closed with a comedy routine, after which guests met online for the after-party. Over $67K was raised for the LCC Bursary Fund.
