Alumni Chair

Laura Blakeney ‘01
Dear Fellow St. Paul’s Saints,
 
Are you proud to be from St. Paul’s? Yes, we are! That’s one of the cheers I heard when my second-grade daughter and I attended the recent pep rally on the Main Campus. As alumni, I hope you are as proud as I am to tell everyone, “I went to St. Paul’s Episcopal School.” Not only does it mean that you received one of the best educations in our state and region, but it also means you were taught to embody character, creativity, and above all, love.
 
This year, I am honored to serve as the Alumni Chair for the 2025 Saints Fund, and I invite you to join me in supporting our annual giving campaign. The Saints Fund helps sustain the extraordinary experiences that St. Paul’s is renowned for, directly benefiting each and every Saint.
 
My husband and I are so thankful we chose to send our three children to St. Paul’s. Each of our children is truly unique, and we’ve seen how they thrive in the diverse programs St. Paul’s offers. Our seventh grader is a quiet leader and is enjoying her first year of Advanced Math. Our fifth grader loves basketball and is trying Cross Country for the first time. Our second grader was born for the stage and loves taking guitar lessons at St. Paul’s.
 
One of the many reasons we chose St. Paul’s for our children—and why I personally hold it in such high esteem—is that the school nurtures every aspect of student life. No priority is placed on one area over another. Athletics, academics, spirituality, arts and leadership are equally important to the heart of the school. This was my experience at St. Paul’s, and I am so grateful that the reputation of “A Great Place to Grow” continues to hold true.
 
At St. Paul’s, every student has a place—and your support helps make that possible. Join my family and me in making St. Paul’s a philanthropic priority this year. Every gift matters, regardless of size. Let’s show current students what it means to be a graduate of St. Paul’s. It means being a proud alumnus of a school that provided you with a well-rounded education and fostered a love for your talents and those of others. Let’s continue the traditions that have always made St. Paul’s the best school for our children.
 
Go Saints!
 
Sincerely,
Laura Blakeney ‘01
