Alumni & Friends

The Graduate School of Education provides many opportunities for our alumni to remain actively involved long after they have graduated. Our goal is to ensure that all alumni stay connected not only with the School, but also with their fellow Stanford alumni and the broader Stanford community. Below are some of the programs we offer.
