Pat Brockway: A Heart
Behind the School
By: SUZANNE GOTTLIEB CALLEJA, Director of Advancement
In light of our 40th Anniversary celebration, there is no better person to recognize as our VisionAerie
than the woman who was there during the early days of the school: Pat Brockway. She is the mother
of two Palmer School Alumni—Bob Brockway '82 and Beth (Brockway) Serrate '85—grandmother
of PTS Alumni, Cole '09 and former PTS student Madelaine Brockway '14, and grandmother of five
current Palmer Trinity School students—Katie Brockway '13; Brock, Chad and Hunter Serrate '17;
and Mackenzie Serrate '19. Pat's involvement in our growing institution, and that of her family's, has
been a story of love, generosity, and most importantly, faith in the future of Palmer Trinity School.
