“Paying it forward secures promise, hope, and in some real ways, the future—our future.” Roxbury Latin kicks off the annual fund On October 14 more than 300 Roxbury Latin alumni and faculty, parents and friends gathered in the Gordon Fieldhouse—enjoying good food and fellowship; expressing and receiving gratitude for a previously successful fundraising year; and hoping, together, that we could again achieve another record year in fundraising on behalf of the students, faculty, and staff of Roxbury Latin. Mo Randall, member of the faculty since 1976, and José Flores of Class I shared their stories that evening—examples of the transformative education and relationships that Roxbury Latin engenders and inspires, and that your gifts help to preserve. Below are excerpts from their remarks, as well as Headmaster Kerry Brennan’s closing appeal and words of gratitude.
