The Alumnae Association is led by President Sarah Wetter ’06, and Secretary & Admissions Liaison Dwyla Jordan '89.

 

Class Representatives serve the critical role of being the primary contact for their classmates. HNHS works closely with class reps to help promote alumnae events, such as Homecoming, and invites them to be involved with fundraising events as well, such as Fund Her Future and Boots & BBQ. Class Reps may help to organize aspects of their class reunions, and can request and update classmate contact information with the school. Class Reps are welcome and encouraged to attend Alumnae Association meetings (5-6 per year) when possible, so they can contribute to alumnae events and represent their classmates.

 

If you’d like to explore the possibility of being a representative, please connect with Emily Lacroix at [email protected] or 510.450.1110, ext. 138.

The Holy Names High School Alumnae Association is an inclusive community of women who value the personal and educational growth Holy Names provided them. The Association nurtures relationships between alumnae and strengthens the bond between alumnae and the school to ensure future generations of young women flourish. Through alumnae events, fundraisers, and volunteer opportunities, the Association engages past, present, and future students to support a culture of empowered women serving our communities.
 
Every graduate of HNHS is welcome to participate in the Alumnae Association! The group gathers every other month during the school year in the Social Hall for an evening meeting (about 5 times per year). Alumnae work closely with HNHS staff to support the school by attending school fundraising events, promoting the school in the community, being a resource to current students, and more.

 

A volunteer leadership team (selected by alumnae) keeps the group organized and helps to set goals each year. The leadership team volunteers their time and expertise to support our larger network and we're tremendously grateful for their service. Please meet our 2019-20 leadership team!
 
If you are interested in joining the leadership team, please contact Emily Lacroix, Executive Development Director at [email protected]

 

Dwyla is a proud alumna of the HNHS Class of '89. She earned a B.A. in American Studies, with a minor in Rhetoric & Communications, from UC Davis and an M.A. in English from Cal State Hayward (East Bay). Dwyla works as part of the administrative team for the Office of Diversity, Leadership, and Employee Wellness at Cal State East Bay. She is passionate about promoting diversity and inclusivity across the university, as well as supporting students in their higher education goals. Dwyla is devoted to her family and she cherishes her husband of 21 years and their two kids (a 20 year-old son and a 16 year-old daughter who is now attending HNHS). Although her household is bustling with two teenagers and a little poodle, Dwyla tries to maintain her hobbies by nurturing her love of writing, ethnic art, music, and movies.
