Celebrating Our Success By the Numbers
What Did ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Build in You?
During the campaign, we asked alums an open-ended question: What did ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Northampton build in you? Their answers ran the gamut—creativity, leadership, opportunity, character, and more—but all shared a common theme rooted in their formative experiences at the school and their desire to build the same opportunities for the next generation of students.
We launched the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Builds campaign with four key priorities: supporting academic excellence for students and faculty; enhancing our community and connections; ensuring access to a ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ education and a sense of belonging for all students; and building institutional momentum through a strong ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Northampton Fund and endowment. In each of these areas, your contributions to the campaign have allowed the school to make progress and build an even brighter future.
