Alumni
Welcome home, Blue Jays!
Each one of you, when you decided to join the Bennett community, declared that you wouldn’t be just another student at another school, filling a seat and doing what was expected of you until you graduated. You wanted to make a mark. You wanted to be a pioneer, an explorer. You wanted to be part of something bigger – you chose to be the exception.
Bennett Day School alumni are kind, thoughtful, self-aware, and curious. They think logically & strategically, problem-solve, and act as culturally and globally competent citizens. Alumni will always be an integral part of the Bennett community.

![As parents, caregivers, and educators, we need to ask ourselves what we truly want for our children. Is "getting into a good college" the sole definition of success? Are we willing to sacrifice their physical and mental health, happiness, and love for learning for a vague future payoff?
In school and work life, there seems to be a false association between working hard, finding success, and being miserable. Parents and students alike seem to think that if they're not anxious, stressed, and unhappy, they're "not being challenged." It's time we question this warped sense of normality.
Check out our latest blog [LINK IN BIO] to learn how Bennett is approaching academic pressure and the rising levels of anxiety and stress in teens. 🩵
If you think your child might thrive in a nurturing environment where learning is built around student interests, register for our Middle & Upper School Open House (Grades 5-12) on Saturday, December 2 at 1:30 pm [LINK IN BIO].
This is the last Open House we'll be hosting before our priority consideration application deadline on December 11.
