UAS alumni and former students represent over 60 years of school history and are spread around the world.
The mission of UAS’ Office of Alumni Relations is to reconnect all of us. We aim to create a lifelong, worldwide UAS community to maintain friendships, celebrate achievements, and build strong and mutually beneficial ties to support one another and UAS.
Past
Events
The first UAS-organized alumni reunion took place in Punta del Este on January 2nd, 2020. More than 80 UAS alumni from all ages (Classes of 1972-2019) got together to reconnect and share their favorite memories from their time at the Uruguayan American School. The event was the first school-organized alumni reunion in over 60 years of UAS history! The sunset reunion in Punta featured live music, cocktails and entertainment for all ages. What is best, the evening ended with a fantastic display of UAS musical talent, as our most skilful alumni took the stage to perform rock covers and original songs. Thank you to everyone that made this event possible.

“Chico was the school custodian who lived in the backyard of the school on Bulevar Artigas. He had his little house in the corner of the backyard. He wore the traditional gaucho outfit, had a
mustache, and drank mate all the time. He was a fixture, a big part of the school, and knew everybody”.
