The St. Martin's Alumni Council and our Class Agent Program

The goal of the St. Martin’s Alumni Council is to connect, engage, cultivate, and sustain relationships with every student who attended St. Martin’s or who graduated from the school.  Through the assistance of the Alumni Coordinator, the Alumni Council, Class Agents and more representatives, those relationships will be leveraged to strengthen the friendships and the fundraising through a variety of events and programs organized throughout each year.  

The Alumni Council meets in person and via Zoom every other month, and Committees meet monthly and as needed to support alumni events and ongoing communications efforts. If you wish to join the Alumni Council, contact Alumni Council president Betsy Gayle Fox '82.

Similarly, the mission of the Class Agent Program at St. Martin’s Episcopal School is to keep alumni connected with the school, to increase alumni understanding of the current state of the school, and to advance alumni support of and participation in the ongoing efforts of the school. As alumni leaders and StM ambassadors, Class Agents can positively impact the lives of current and future students, fellow alumni, and the school community as a whole.  Even as our Alumni are hearing from their alma mater on a regular basis via the email newsletter, we know that it is the personal nature of class agents that makes them an influential, positive force. 

Our Class Agent share classmates' important news with the school, such as births, marriages, re-locations, promotions, awards, or family losses. They also maintain updated contact information for their class with the school. We also love it when our Class Agents share testimonials about the teachers or classes that had the strongest impact or influence on their trajectory, or share a favorite StM tradition. 

If you have any questions about the Class Agent Program or would like to represent your class, email the Alumni Office, or read the information below.
