Our campus was buzzing with energy as the Portledge community came together for a picture-perfect Founders Day on Saturday, October 3! Families, students, faculty, staff, and alumni filled the grounds to enjoy an afternoon of games, crafts, food trucks, and school spirit under sunny skies.
The weekend kicked off with a special Alumni Reunion and Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, where we proudly celebrated Thomas Hornosky ’76, Seth Gottesman ’86, Ashley Wade ’11, Thomas Parisi ’11, and Jahmir Primer ’21. It was a meaningful evening honoring their achievements and lasting impact on the Portledge community.
A heartfelt thank you to all of our volunteers and vendors whose hard work and enthusiasm made the day such a success. Your dedication truly brings our community to life.
The celebrations continued on the fields, where Panther Pride reached new heights — both the Boys Varsity Soccer team and the Girls Varsity Soccer team defeated their opponents!
From laughter in the Panther Den to cheers from the sidelines, this year’s Founders Day was a wonderful reminder of what makes Portledge so special — community, connection, and pride in every step.
