Honoring Two Extraordinary Breck Educators - 3 days ago
This year, at the faculty’s closing Chapel, we celebrated a combined 67 years of transformative teaching as we bid a heartfelt farewell to Brad Peterson in the Upper School Math Department and Claudette Laureano in the Music Department. These two deeply devoted and beloved faculty members have shaped the lives of hundreds of Breck students across multiple decades.
Many in our community have asked how they might honor their incredible legacies. If you would like to make a tribute gift in Brad Peterson’s honor, you may do so directly from this page. You will also be able to leave a note of gratitude in the comments section after making your gift, which we will proudly share with Brad.
If you would like to make a gift in honor of Claudette Laureano, please visit this link here. Parents of orchestra students helped create this legacy fund in Claudette’s honor for enrichment experiences for Breck orchestra students. You will also be able to leave Claudette a note of gratitude on that page.
Thank you for helping to honor these two remarkable individuals who have left an indelible mark on our students and on our programs for years to come.
