Athletic Hall of Fame
Manlius Pebble Hill School has made the decision to postpone some alumni events, including the Athletic Hall of Fame and Alumni Weekend events until fall 2022 (dates TBD). Know that the health and safety of our community members is our top priority, and this will guide all of our decisions moving forward.
Stay current with the School’s communication on COVID-19 here.
Our best wishes are with our alumni community as you all handle these challenging times. Stay well!
