Challenges Before Univariety
1. Limited Alumni Engagement
Before partnering with Univariety, the school struggled to maintain a strong connection with its past students, resulting in minimal alumni involvement in school events and activities. This lack of engagement led to missed opportunities for mentorship, networking, and support for current students.
2. Diminished Sense of Community
Without a robust alumni network, there was a noticeable gap in fostering a sense of pride and nostalgia among former students. This weakened the school's ability to create a cohesive and supportive community, impacting efforts to build excitement and support for significant milestones, such as the upcoming 50-year celebrations.
