I  met exuberant young alumni just beginning to establish themselves in  fascinating careers. I met retired alumni who shared reflections of  Williston Academy and Northampton School for Girls, united in their  appreciation for the teachers and mentors who helped shape their lives.  And I met with alumni more than willing to share their expertise in  medicine or technology with our current students, a reconnecting with  their alma mater that has tremendous potential to impact the lives of  our young people. It was invigorating and heartening to meet those who  belong to our West Coast family. Many thanks to all for your gracious  hospitality and eagerness to share your stories of our school.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/info.williston.com\/Portals\/16020\/images\/head_22.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"head 22\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week&rsquo;s visits to San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Seattle (aside from providing relief from the 22 inches of snow that greeted me on my return to Easthampton) gave me the opportunity to meet with folks from a broad spectrum of The Williston Northampton School&rsquo;s alumni ranks.
