Whitfield Alumni Parent Connection

Being a part of the Whitfield School family does not end when a student graduates. Parents of alumni from all eras enjoy the opportunity to stay connected with one another through a variety of events and activities. This is the reason for the creation of the Alumni Parent Connection.

Spearheaded by Anne Chao and Mimi Hammack to connect Whitfield Alumni Parents in a fun social atmosphere providing support, enrichment, and friendship, Whitfield Alumni Parent Connection is currently comprised of several core members who will help kick-off events for the group.

According to Chao and Hammack, “We hear the same phrase over and over: ‘Whitfield is a great place with great people.’ Therefore, we felt that now was the time to gather friends that have stayed in contact to create Whitfield Alumni Parent Connection.” Both ladies have had several children graduate from Whitfield and know the value of keeping those friendships with other parents.

The group already includes parents of graduates spanning more than a decade and plans to reach out to alumni parents from all years.

In addition to helping alumni parents staying connected, this group will encourage alumni parent volunteering at Homecoming or sporting events.

Plans are underway to hold four gatherings a year:  Summer Social, Fall Homecoming Social, Valentine Social, and Montage Social. There is no charge to be a part of the Whitfield Alumni Parent Connection and most socials will be outside of Whitfield School.
