Alumni

Dawson's alumni and development programs are only successful with the help of our countless volunteers. If you would like to volunteer for any of the alumni programs listed below in Boulder County or in your home city, please contact Julie Marr, jmarr@dawsonschool.org.

Alumni Guest Faculty/Speaker
Come back to campus and be a guest speaker in a class related to your professional field.

Dawson's Alumni Council
The Alumni Council connects alumni to each other and to the school. Alumni volunteers from different classes and geographical areas promote that connection both on campus and around the country. They also share the alumni perspective with the administration and the Board of Trustees with the hope of advancing Dawson's mission. Meetings are held quarterly and there is a remote option for participating.

Class Representatives
Class reps have one important job: CONNECT. Keep class spirit alive through calls, emails, social networking, thank you notes and/or class notes; send an annual letter to classmates; actively seek to find lost alumni/ae, and capture email addresses for all classmates. Coordinate class involvement with alumni events.

Alumni Admissions Volunteers
If you know of someone considering a Colorado independent school, keep Dawson in mind! If you want to work with the Admissions Office, you may be asked to attend a school fair near you or to interview prospective students and families who cannot make it to campus for a visit. You may also be asked to call student candidates in your geographical area or who share one of your interests.

Alumni Week of Giving / Class Agents
Reach out to fellow alumni and encourage them to participate in the Alumni Week of Giving.  Make your own contribution (remember, the amount does not matter) and then use social media, emails, phone calls, and old-fashioned letters to get as many alumni as you can to participate.
