Although October 7-9 seems far away at this point, it’s never too early to make your plans to come down to The Island School for the on-island reunion!  All alumni, parents, and former faculty are invited to come back to the Cape for this weekend-long celebration.  We hope to see you all there!
Please note: An attendee under the age of 18 MUST be accompanied by his or her parent.  An alumnus MAY NOT have another alum’s parent act as their guardian. 

The cost of the reunion is $100 per person.  This is NOT a tax deductible donation.  Your check will cover five meals on campus, including a special event at Barracuda’s, transportation to and from Lighthouse Beach on Sunday, and activities such as snorkeling, kayaking, and research.
