Lakeside/St. Nicholas Reunion Reception: 1s and 6s

This year Reunion events will be hosted June 4-9, 2026.

Classes ending in 6 and 1 are celebrating the traditional reunion milestones. The Class of 1976 celebrates their 50th reunion.

Class-specific gatherings offer a more intimate, class-focused way to connect during Reunion Weekend and are organized independently by alums. If your class is planning something, we recommend connecting with your Class Rep or past Reunion organizers for the latest details.

Individual class gatherings typically take place throughout the weekend, beginning after the on-campus Reunion celebration.

We invite you to the 50th Reunion Reception on Thursday, June 4, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Enjoy a light lunch, and feel free to bring your spouse or significant other. The event will also feature remarks from our Interim Head of School, Ryan Boccuzzi, followed by a campus tour.

The Lakeside Class of ’76 is warmly invited to join the Class of 2026 in the traditional commencement procession. We will gather in McKay Chapel at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 9, 2026 to don our robes for the procession. Please register in advance to participate.

There will be an Interim Head of School Reunion Welcome and Reception on June 5. The welcome begins at 5 p.m., followed by a reception at 6 p.m.

You and a guest are invited to join us for an enjoyable evening outdoors on the Upper School Quad. Drinks and dinner will be served, and the tented space will offer something for every decade—whether you prefer to relax under the big tent, mingle with classmates, or enjoy lawn games.

The reunion celebration will occur under the large tent up for Commencement. The tent allows for more space, flexibility, movement, and fresh air.

The Reunion Reception is a casual outdoor event, and we will celebrate rain or shine. Please check the forecast and dress accordingly. We recommend opting for comfortable layers, shoes suitable for walking on grass, and rain-ready attire if needed.

Food and beverages will be available throughout the event. There is no formal, sit-down dinner.

Before the tented reception, there will be a Interim Head of School Reunion Welcome. This brief program will include special recognition of reunion milestone classes and donors, an update from the interim head of school, and a brief tour of Lakeside’s newest academic building. The reception that follows will be unprogrammed, giving alums and their guests the chance to catch up with friends, enjoy great food and drinks, play lawn games, and take class photos.

We kindly ask that if you do bring your baby, please ensure they are in your arms and not yet walking. The reunion event is not designed for children.

Classes will have the chance to have their portrait taken at a designated time.

Carpooling and rideshares are encouraged to minimize cars on campus. The carpool/rideshare drop-off location will be at the Red Square roundabout.

If you drive, here’s what you need to know:

On-campus parking lots will be first-come, first served. Reunion brings an influx of cars to our campus and the surrounding neighborhood. Please note that there is limited street parking in the area.

We expect all members of our community to be considerate of our neighbors. Seattle’s municipal code states that there is no parking within five feet of a driveway, mailbox, or alley.

There is no parking along 1st Avenue NE fronting the Middle School property and NE 140th Street between 1st and 4th avenues, where “no parking” signs appear. The city of Seattle regularly patrols these streets and tickets and tows illegally parked cars.

Whether you can make it to the reunion reception or not, you’re invited to learn more about the Alum Programming Grants. Programming Grants are a fantastic way to bring together Lakeside alumni across multiple classes during reunion weekend, regardless of where you are!
