From the Alumni Chair

Dear Alumni,

We are so grateful to each and every alumnus who makes up our vibrant community. It is because of your love and dedication to our school that John Thomas Dye continues to be such a special place for children to learn, thrive and carry on The 5Cs.

I want to take a moment to thank you all, especially our alumni DYE-HARDS (Alumni who both give to the Annual Fund and attend a JTD virtual or in-person event each year), for your continued involvement with JTD. If it’s been a while since you have been back on campus or you are a new alumnus, we would love to catch up. Drop us a line, either through class notes or email, or give us a call.

We hope to see you at one of our events in the coming year! Once a Greyhound, always a Greyhound.

In Love, Beauty, and Truth,
Mary Corman '97

    That’s what Kate Dworkoski, our new Director of Admissions, told her husband after her first visit to JTD’s campus on Chalon Road. A lifelong educator from a family of lifelong educators, Kate could immediately tell what makes our school so special. She recently sat down with us to reflect on her first months at JTD. An accomplished background has helped Kate hit the ground running as our Director of Admissions and a mom to two JTD students (Alexander ‘23, Theodore ‘27) of her own.
