Alumni
Welcome home!
Wherever life has taken you, if you graduated from SFS or spent just one year here, you are always part of the SFS community. This is your space to reconnect, reminisce, and stay engaged with the lifelong network of fellow alumni who share a bond shaped by our school’s unique spirit. Whether you’re looking to catch up on alumni news, join upcoming events, or give back to the next generation of SFS students, we’re glad you’re here.
It’s not just about representation; it’s about making sure our stories are told with authenticity and care. I feel a responsibility to the next generation to make sure they see themselves in the stories they read and watch. And for me, that mission is deeply personal.Paula Yoo '87
Announcing the 2025 Alumna of the Year: Paula Yoo '87
We are proud to announce that Paula Yoo '87 has been named the 2025 Alumna of the Year! The Alum of the Year is a distinction given to alumni who continue to exemplify the SFS mission long after leaving campus. An award-winning author, journalist, screenwriter, and musician, Paula embodies the excellence and spirit of the SFS community.
In October 2024, Paula returned to campus for the first time in 42 years, sharing her journey and insights with students across all grade levels. From discussing race and identity with high schoolers to offering a behind-the-scenes look at storytelling to elementary students, her visit was filled with inspiration. A special highlight was her performance with the orchestras, a meaningful moment given there was no orchestra during her time at SFS.
We are honored to recognize Paula for her outstanding achievements and dedication. She will return in May 2025 to speak at High School Graduation and present the SFS Alumni Committee Award.
