As of graduation 2022, Sycamore has more than 1,100 alumni. They often remark that they are grateful for the bonds they made here with their classmates, teammates, and teachers that continue to bring such richness to their lives. It is a reminder that the “Sycamore family” is not just something that the community talks about but is a real source of friendship, connection, and support that has the power to remain with them long after graduation. It is appropriate that the title of the school alma mater is "Our Great Sycamore."
We look forward to hearing about your adventures, your ambitions, and your accomplishments. If you have any stories that you would like to share, recent or old, or any pictures from getting together with members of our great Sycamore family, please send them to Mary O'Malley, Alumni Coordinator, omalley.mary@sycamoreschool.org .

"The thing that makes this place feel like it does is the people. Everyone has a little extra kindness, a little extra perseverance, a little extra something. When I arrived here in seventh grade, I was immediately surrounded by people who wanted to learn, who wanted to grow into better people, and ultimately, people who just wanted to be friends. I didn’t have to seek out new people to hang out with; they sought me out. Sycamore is like a family."
(Hanna, Class of 2020)

WHAT OUR YOUNG ALUMNI SAY ABOUT SYCAMORE
"I think Sycamore prepared me very well for the rigorous courses (IB and AP) that I took throughout high school. Sycamore also instilled a love of learning, which I still hold today."
(Laura, Class of 2017)
"One of the greatest things Sycamore taught me was time management skills. Not only was I taught how to complete my homework in a timely manner but I was allowed to pursue professional musical theatre outside of school, which played a high role in helping me develop and better my time management skills. These skills have been so important in high school not only to manage my course load but also so I have time to devote to extracurriculars and social activities."
