On Friday, April 24, 11 members of the class of 2026 and eight members of the class of 2027 were inducted into the Park Tudor Chapter of the Cum Laude Society. These students join 11 members of the class of 2026 who were inducted last year as juniors. There are 376 Cum Laude chapters nationwide; Park Tudor is one of four schools in Indiana with a chapter.

2026 Young Alumni Impact Award recipient Richard Ni '11 and alumnus CJ Harrington '13 joined us as guest speakers at the event. Richard and CJ shared memories from their times at Park Tudor, insights from their careers, and advice for our Upper School students.

Each spring, Park Tudor faculty members who are members of the Cum Laude Society meet to elect the new members of Cum Laude. Membership in the Cum Laude Society is limited by its national bylaws to no more than 20% of the senior class. Juniors may be inducted, but this is limited to those students who have received only grades of A for all semester grades at Park Tudor through the end of the fall semester of their junior year.

Congratulations to all the inductees!
