Alumni Weekend is the signature event of the year for all Heights graduates!
Alumni of all ages and their families are invited to campus to connect with classmates and faculty and celebrate all things Heights.
Below is a schedule of the events. The featured events are the Friday Headmaster’s Reception & State of The Heights Address along with the Saturday Family Day!
All attendees must purchase a ticket, this helps immensely with logistics. If you are planning on bringing your family to any event of the weekend, please purchase 1 family ticket (even if you plan to attend other events of the weekend by yourself or with your wife/fiancée/girlfriend.) Otherwise, buy a couples or individual ticket. One ticket purchase covers any and all events you will attend. Please get your tickets as soon as possible!
You can select the events you plan on attending below. All the events below are open to all alumni.
The following classes are celebrating anniversary reunions:
