Nancy Jeffrey died peacefully at home on November 8, 2018, surrounded by her children. A philanthropist, advocate, and mentor, she combined her voice with action to create transformative change for so many in this community and beyond.
Lower School students were treated to their own, private concert earlier this month as Dr. Orlay Alonso P’28 (Sofia Alonso-Taub) joined them to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. The girls had fun dancing in their seats and helping Dr. Alonso with mambo vocalization, but there was also a bigger message in Dr. Alonso’s artistry, one about family, connection, and individual perseverance.
