Class Representatives

Volunteers are vital to the success of Browning's Alumni Association and we welcome your involvement. A great way to become involved is to attend an Alumni Council meeting or serve as a Class Representative.

Each Browning class has two or more Class Representatives responsible for serving as liaisons between their class and the School. Responsibilities include soliciting Class Notes for the Buzzer, keeping class contact information current, promoting alumni events and reunions, and supporting the Annual Fund.

If you would like to serve as a Class Representative, please contact the Alumni Office at 212.838.6280 Ext. 1920.

We were incredibly fortunate to have as our commencement speaker, Justin A. Rockefeller, who in addition to being a social entrepreneur and financial technology professional, is also the great-grandson of distinguished alumnus John D. Rockefeller, Class of 1893!
🎓
“Remember Browning values. If you remain curious enough to learn about and remember others who are less fortunate, and if you’re honest with yourself about how lucky you are, and if you treat others with dignity along the way, I promise you’ll find your purpose. Congratulations again, graduates. Onward!”

Congratulations to the Class of 2019! 🎓 Oh, the places you’ll go! #browningschool

Meet your Student Government President and Vice President for the 2019-20 school year! Thank you, both, for your willingness to serve your fellow classmates and the Browning community at large.

We’re pleased to announce that Science Chair Emilie Wolf had been honored by The Academy for Teachers to attend a master class on “T. rex: The Ultimate Predator,” led by @AMNH Macaulay curator Mark Norell. 🦖
Master classes are a rare opportunity for teachers to learn from a leading expert and from each other. This is the second time Ms. Wolf has been honored.

Have you picked up the latest copy of the Grytte student newspaper, which spotlights the incoming Dean of Student Life and Director of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion? 📰 Great work on the issue, reporters!

Bravo to Alexander R. ’21 who scored a perfect score at the New York State School Music Association competition and was selected amongst 13 finalists to be designated a top piano soloist in the state! In a first for Browning participants, Alexander was invited to perform “Rachmaninoff – Humoresque, Op. 10, No. 5” in Rochester before an audience of 500. 🎹 #browningArts

Our inaugural Middle School Closing Assembly celebrated the life and people of the division and all that they’ve accomplished together this year! Congratulations to the Class of 2023 on moving up to the Upper School.

The Lower School concluded the year with a “Sing a Song" assembly featuring works from the likes of Lil Nas X, The Ramones, Sesame Street and more. We congratulate our youngest Browning boys on a job well done and wish them a fantastic summer!

Inspired by TV’s “Shark Tank,” the fifth grade Radical Empathy class closed out the year with presentations on proposed ways to drive positive change in the wider community. The teams presented to a panel of "Panther Tank" judges from @RileysWayFoundation, which urges the younger generation to lead with empathy and kindness. We're so inspired by the boys’ compassion and innovative ideas!

Our Form I boys have been studying the historical context of Picasso's great painting, "Guernica," his condemnation of the 1937 bombing of the Basque town of the same name. In their foreign language classes, the boys studied Picasso's deep connections to both France and Spain, while in art class, they created paintings inspired by his iconic painting. #browningArts 📷: Mr. Vlahos

Just one more week left until these young men graduate from Browning! We hope you boys had a great time at prom.

The Advanced Genetics Research class had the unique privilege to present their research on DNA technology at the Urban Barcode and Research Symposium, amongst students from across the tri-state area. They also submitted their report to the @HarvardGSAS Journal of Emerging Investigators, an open-access science journal that publishes original research by middle and high school students! 🧬

Congratulations to Christian K. ’21 on being accepted into @NYUSteinhardtVP Vocal Summer School! This summer he will engage in a two-week intensive program featuring masterclasses with teachers and guests currently working in the field, which will lead him to showcase his talent and progress at a final concert. #browningArts #browningschool

The Form I Latin class spent the afternoon at the @MetMuseum, acquainting themselves with the collection of the Greek and Roman Galleries by participating in a scavenger hunt! 🏛 #browningschool

It’s the final week of classes for the year – you’ve got this, Panthers!

The fifth graders took advantage of the gorgeous weather to go birding in Central Park with two birding experts from the @WildBirdFund. The boys spotted 12 species of bird including most notably the Green Heron, with help from the Merlin @CornellBirds app. 📷: Ms. Gilman

Our first graders threw a publishing party this morning! 📝 🎉 Parents, teachers and kindergarten boys were on hand to congratulate our accomplished authors and review the fruits of their labor from their 'writing workshops' throughout the year.

The third graders celebrated months of research and writing on New Amsterdam with Dutch Day! Dressed as real-life characters from the time period, our “colonials” enthusiastically shared their knowledge and writing samples with visitors in a living museum set-up. #browningschool
