Read an article about Molly Mulligan '97, "Defying Gravity"

The alumni of Robert C. Parker School are amazing individuals. They share with us that the values learned at Parker are alive and well in the way they approach life. They confidently embrace creativity, individuality, freedom, acceptance and activism.

"I think Parker really created a foundation for me for being intellectually curious, not taking for granted that the way the world works is how it has to work, and valuing giving back to the community." 

~Tom Dollar '00, Troy High, Princeton, NYU Law School, Judicial Law Clerk for the US District Court for Eastern District on New York
