Two dozen Harker alumni gathered for the second annual Northern California regional event Aug. 12 at District, a wine bar in San Francisco’s SOMA neighborhood. Attendees ranged from recent college graduates to established professionals; the guests found common ground reminiscing about their time at Harker, whether it was four years ago or 20! Chris Nikoloff, head of school, and Joe Rosenthal, executive director of advancement, spoke with the alumni about recent developments at Harker and visited with longtime friends and former students.

Alumni Join Giammona for ‘80s Moment

There was an ’80s moment on June 25 when Kristen Giammona, elementary division head, held a mini-reunion at her house with people from her own class of 1981 as well as alumni from 1980 and 1982.

“Miss Kelly [Espinosa, director of summer programs] joined us because many of us worked with her when we were summer camp counselors,” said Giammona. “Everyone brought food and drink to share. We had a great time catching up and reconnecting.”
