Save the Date for Alumni Weekend 2026

Friday, May 1 - Sunday, May 3

The Shipley School and The Shipley School Alumni Council invite alumni, honorary alumni, families, and guests to join us on campus for Alumni Weekend 2026! All alumni and honorary alumni are invited, with special recognition for reunion classes ending in a 1 or 6.

It's been 10 years since we've gathered on campus for the 1s & 6s reunion and there is a lot of catching up to do! It's time to reconnect with your classmates, your friends, and your school. Mark your calendar and start making plans to attend. We can’t wait to welcome you back to Bryn Mawr!
 

Reunion Giving

Join your classmates and other alumni with a gift this year to help ensure that Shipley continues its tradition of educational excellence and today's students learn to define for themselves what it means to lead lives with Courage for the Deed; Grace for the Doing.
 
Alumni celebrating a reunion in 2026 are encouraged to make a special gift to Shipley to commemorate their reunion milestone. At Alumni Weekend 2026, the Shipley Alumni Association will present two giving awards: the Reunion Giving Award, awarded to the class with the highest amount contributed, and the Class of 1948 Margaret Bailey Speer Award, given to the class with the highest participation percentage in giving.

Alumni Awards

Alumni Awards are presented annually during Alumni Reunion Weekend to honor outstanding alumni in reunion years. Know someone who’s making a difference? Visit the Alumni Awards page to submit your nomination!

Please note: nominations for Alumni Reunion Weekend 2026 (class years ending in 1 and 6) are due by December 1, 2025.
