Who is a Stratford Graduate?

A Stratford graduate is a student who is poised to make meaningful contributions to the world. They communicate with clarity, foster connection and lead with purpose. Guided by curiosity, character, and creativity, our graduates are prepared not just for success, but for significance. A Stratford graduate leaves the world better than they found it. 

They say who you surround yourself with defines who you are. I spent my time at Stratford surrounded by some really great people. People that have given each other support, compassion, and friendship. People that have shown up for one another in competition, celebration, and in moments of pain. We've lifted each other up and kept each other levelheaded. We've laughed together, cried together, and cheered each other on. And through everything we've done, we've treated one another with respect, kindness, empathy, and love.
