Nostalgia in the Air

One of the most touching aspects of the night was the presence of beloved ACS Athens teachers. Their arrival instantly added a deeper layer of nostalgia, with alumni eagerly reminiscing about classroom memories, schoolyard adventures, and the impactful experiences they shared during their time at ACS Athens. Teachers didn’t just attend the gathering; they were central to the lively conversations, bringing old stories to life with their own unique perspectives.

Behind the Scenes

The evening wouldn’t have been such a success without the dedication of Christos Mastoras (Class of 1993) and Angelos Vassiliadis (Class of 2001), who played a pivotal role in organizing the event. From selecting the stunning venue to creating an inviting atmosphere, their efforts ensured that the gathering was an unforgettable night for all.

Looking to the Future: The 80th Anniversary Gala

The Dubai Gathering was more than just a walk down memory lane. It also looked ahead, with excitement building for the upcoming 80th Anniversary Gala and Alumni Achievement Awards, set for February 14th, 2025, at the historic Grand Bretagne in Athens. This major milestone will celebrate eight decades of ACS Athens’ legacy, bringing together alumni from all over the world to honor the school’s rich history and ongoing achievements.
