It’s easy to lose sight of how important Shady Side was during our young lives, especially if one’s own kids don’t attend or you live outside of Pittsburgh. But the current generation of students is no less deserving of our continual loyalty and support. I have committed a planned gift to Shady Side in recognition of the positive impact that the school, including the faculty, coaches and administrators, had on me during my adolescence. My participation in the Semper Society is a modest expression of my gratitude.
