- Alumni Changing
- the World
Innovators and communicators, advocates and thinkers—GDS alumni are leaders in a wide variety of fields and sectors. Though their career paths are varied and their work diverse, one thing they all have in common is their grounding in GDS. Georgetown Day School graduates leave the School with a love of learning, an abhorrence of bigotry and intolerance, a broadly rounded fund of knowledge, the ability to enter the great conversations of life, and the willingness and capacity to bring needed change to a troubled world.
We’re proud of our GDS alumni. Below, get to know some of these remarkable individuals.
