Alumnae Volunteers

The Alumnae Advisory Group (AAG) counsels NCS's professional staff on alumnae engagement programs and supports the school’s efforts to fortify existing relationships and foster new connections among alumnae and between alumnae and the school. Members serve as exemplary philanthropic and volunteer leaders by supporting the school annually and being active in the alumnae community.

 

The following alumnae currently serve in the AAG:

 

Nearly 50 percent of NCS alumnae live outside of the Greater Washington, D.C. region, making the work of our Regional Points of Contact vital to ensuring our NCS alumnae community remains engaged with the school and with one another. These volunteers serve as school ambassadors for their respective cities or regions, hosting events, connecting alumnae, and more. If you have recently moved to a new area, reach out to your Regional Point of Contact. Not seeing your city listed and interested in serving as your area’s Regional Point of Contact? Reach out to Chloe Post, director of alumnae engagement via email or phone, (202) 537-6359.

 

 

The Black Alumnae Association (BAA) was established in 1990 with the purpose of enriching the NCS Black alumnae experience. In addition, through working with the Black Student Union and the Black Parent Alliance, the BAA strives to improve the NCS experience for students of color and their families. In 1994, the BAA began hosting an annual induction ceremony and reception to welcome Black graduating seniors into the BAA. Each participant is given a kente sash which incorporates NCS’s colors. Interested in joining the BAA? Reach out to Chair Jeni Hansen ’96.

Class Agents serve as vital volunteers for the Annual Fund. At 8 percent of the school’s operating budget, the Annual Fund remains NCS’s top fundraising priority each year. Agents are asked to both support the Fund themselves, as well as encourage classmate participation throughout the year. Interested in serving as a Class Agent? Contact Molly Wadsworth, director of annual giving, via email or phone, (202) 537-6676.
