Lower School students had fun dressing up and posing for a picture with Mrs. Hackley that came home in their backpacks after school!




During Upper School Community Time, the Hackley School Treble Chorus, joined by students from Round Square's Queen Anne's School, performed the Alma Mater, directed by Megan Fogarty P '27, Director of the Middle and Upper School Choral Programs. Their performance was captured in this behind-the-scenes "sneak preview" of the recording that will be finalized and released later this school year. Students have been recording in the new studio in the Allen Center for Creative Arts & Technology.

Upper School students are taking part in a Hackley History contest, identifying the date of ten vintage photos of Hackley over the years. Good luck, Hornets! 



Head of School Charles Franklin and Community Council President Ace Perez '27 continued the tradition of cutting Mrs. Hackley's birthday cake. Students in every division enjoyed cupcakes at lunch. 


Mrs. Hackley herself surprised students in the Lower School at lunch, where they shared with her what they love about Hackley!


Middle School students completed a two week contest of finding hidden cut-outs of Mrs. Hackley and answering a trivia question for HIVE points!


The hornet welcomed students to school this morning!


A group of creative and talented Upper School Students created the short film,"The Story of Mrs Hackley," featuring a time-traveling Mrs. Hackley transported into the year 2026. Find out what our founder thinks of our School today!
