Current Events

ReSCHOOLED

ReSCHOOLED will offer lessons from the best minds at MKA as they share their stories, skills, and experiences. Stay tuned for more information about our spring event From Farm to MKA: How Your Food Choices Impact the Climate. Travel with Mr. Rich, MKA’s Upper School science teacher and Sustainability Coordinator, to TerraPurezza, a premier regenerative farm near Austin, TX, to learn how the food choices you make in the grocery store or farmer’s market make a world of difference in the global climate system. What is regenerative agriculture? How is your carbon footprint different shopping at grocery stores vs farmers markets? How is our industrial agriculture system set up and what can you do about it?

Hemmeter Lecture Series

The MKA History Department hosts two Hemmeter Lecture Series a year, featuring a wide variety of influential and thought-provoking panelists. Stay tuned for more information about this spring’s lecture on Social Justice.

It’s a great day connecting students with alumni!

Fundraising Volunteering

The continued growth and success of alumni participation in our Annual Giving would not be possible without the assistance of alumni volunteers. There are many ways that you can help us reach our Annual Giving goals:

You can take part in MKA Day, our annual giving day. We welcome your assistance as a social media ambassador or phonathon solicitor.
Volunteering for our April phonathon is a great way to meet other alumni and enjoy a fun evening while raising funds for MKA.
We also depend on our class representatives and reunion chairs to encourage their classmates to support our Annual Giving appeals using the form of communication they are most comfortable with—social media, postal mail, email, text messages, or phone calls.

Networking Events

Each year the Alumni Office hosts networking events for alumni. These evenings are for anyone looking for a first job, preparing for a mid-career change, seeking guidance on how to advance in a current career, hoping to expand his or her professional network, or anyone who is simply interested in meeting other members of the MKA community. These two hour events are usually in New York City and consists of one hour of formal networking followed by a one hour reception with appetizers and beverages, which provides more intimate one-on-one networking and socializing. Panelists are alumni who have achieved a level of success in a selected field.
