List of Groton School alumni

The following is a list of notable alumni of Groton School.

Note on sources edit

The first official school history, Frank D. Ashburn's Fifty Years On: Groton School, 1884-1934 (1934) (hereafter "Ashburn"), provides a complete list of Groton alumni (including students who did not graduate) through 1934, as well as a non-exhaustive list of some of the more notable alumni.[1] Ashburn's companion book Peabody of Groton (2d ed. 1967) provides a more extensive list of notable alumni but does not provide the years of their graduation.[2] Where possible, graduation dates for names listed solely in Peabody of Groton have been cross-referenced with the list of graduates in Fifty Years On; otherwise, a question mark has been placed next to the presumptive graduation year (that is, four years before the individual graduated from college).

The second official school history, Acosta Nichols' Forty Years More: A History of Groton School, 1934-1974, does not contain a list of famous alumni, but it does contain a list of trustees, alumni association presidents, and summa cum laude graduates, some of which became famous in their own right.[3]

The school also awards "Distinguished Grotonian" and "Cui Servire" prizes and maintains an Athletic Hall of Fame; the web pages for these awards include the graduation years for other (generally more recent) alumni.[4][5]
