About 25 Wellington alumni gathered in Chicago to reconnect and celebrate their shared roots, joined by Head of School Eliza McLaren; Chris Robbins P ’17 ’22, upper school English; and Sara Brdar P ’02 ’03, former upper school history. “One of the most meaningful takeaways from our Chicago gathering was how many alumni shared they didn’t realize so many fellow Jaguars were living and thriving in their city,” said Elissa Francis P ’40, director of development. “The chance to connect across graduating classes to sharing career journeys, creative passions, and how their aspirations have come to fruition since leaving Wellington made the night feel like a rediscovery of community.” The evening underscored the strength of Wellington’s alumni network and the lasting connections that continue to grow far beyond campus.
