For her steadfast three decades of service to Blair, we are proud to recognize Lauren (Makar) Haley as the 2026 Alumni of the Year.
 

For his lifetime of service and leadership, Blair Academy proudly bestows its highest honor—the Citation of Merit—upon Hobart Van Deusen.

Looking around at Alumni Weekend festivities in June, those who returned to their alma mater could “see the good” playing out in every space across campus. Old friends reconnected over shared memories, new relationships formed over exciting activities, and bonds were strengthened through laughter and joy. Despite the time that passed, alums slipped into old ways and found the good in being together once more.

The month of May closed out another outstanding school year at Blair. Actors and musicians graced the stage, athletes brought home title championships, and leaders and scholars imparted words of wisdom to younger students during their final moments on the hilltop. May was a grand celebration of the triumphs throughout the year, and Director of School Photography Tyson Trish was there to capture it all.
 

On the hilltop, art is not a quiet sideline. It is the pulse of the community, commanding space in all aspects of Blair life, shaping identity and giving students an outlet to discover the limits of their creativity.

As the academic year came to a close, underclass students and faculty came together for a night of recognition in the DuBois Theatre. On Tuesday, May 26, the Underclass Prize Assembly honored members of the ninth, 10th and 11th grades for their outstanding academic and cocurricular work throughout Blair’s 178th year.

As the 2025-2026 school year enters its final days, Blair’s School Store shares information regarding textbooks that students rented or purchased for use in their coursework this year.
