How long has it been since you graduated from A.O.L.? 15 or 30 years? 45 or 50 years? Well, whatever the span of years may be between your graduation and today, it’s time to reminisce about your high school years and catch up with your classmates again at the all-school A.O.L. Reunion on Saturday, October 18.

Reunion 2014 will be an hors d’oeuvres party (cash bar) from 5 to 10 p.m. Saturday, October 18, at the Hilton Oak Lawn Hotel, 94th and Cicero Avenue, Oak Lawn, IL. All alumnae are invited. Members of each class celebrating a 5-year anniversary of graduation will sit together and receive a special salute. A photo of each 5-year-anniversary class will be taken, and copies may be ordered. A.O.L. shirts, caps and note cards will be available for purchase, as will raffle prize tickets. The Reunion price is $50. Proceeds assist the Alumnae Office and the School Sisters of Notre Dame.

Advance reservations are necessary for the Reunion. The Alumnae Office will send reunion invitation letters to 5-year-anniversary classes in July. A reservation form will be included with the letter.

Alumnae in other classes who wish to attend the reunion may use the reservation form included with Reunion 2014 information in the summer Longwood Update newsletter. If reserving by U.S. mail, please send a check or money order, made payable to the Academy of Our Lady Alumnae Association, with your name (including last name when at AO.L.), current address, phone number, e-mail address and year of graduation to: A.O.L. Alumnae Association, P.O. Box 558070, Chicago, IL 60655-8070.

Reservations also may be made using the PayPal form below.

Reunion reservations made after October 13 will be $55.

For alumnae who wish to stay overnight, the Hilton offers a group rate for guest rooms of $129 (single or double) plus taxes. Guest room reservations may be made online (click here), or by calling 1-800-315-1058. The Hilton Oak Lawn’s phone number is 708-425-7800. Mention the Academy of Our Lady Alumnae Reunion October 18. Group-rate reservations will be accepted until September 26, unless our block of rooms is fully reserved before that date. It’s best to reserve early.

We are hoping the Chicago International Charter School/Longwood campus, will permit our alumnae to visit the former A.O.L. campus at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 18. The visit would include a short prayer service at the Grotto and then a guided tour of the school buildings. There is free parking on the campus. Reservations would not be necessary for the campus visit.

The A.O.L. Alumnae Office appreciates receiving corrected contact information for all alumnae. These updates should be forwarded to Irene Burke, Alumnae database coordinator, using our web form. Corrected contact information also may be sent by U.S. mail to: Irene Burke, c/o Academy of Our Lady Alumnae Office, P.O. Box 558070, Chicago, IL 60655-8070. The sooner we receive an alumna’s address correction, the sooner we can forward Reunion 2014 information to her.

If you have a question, please call the Alumnae Office at 773-445-2300, and leave your name, graduation year and phone number. When leaving a message, please speak slowly and clearly.
