On Monday evening, we had the privilege of celebrating our QMS Lifers—students who have been part of the QMS community for six or more years.

The Lifer Reception is an opportunity to recognize these students and express our heartfelt gratitude to their families for entrusting us with such an important part of their educational journey. Through years of learning, growth, friendship, service and discovery, these students have helped shape the spirit of our school while embracing the values and traditions that make QMS unique.

As they prepare to begin their next chapter, we thank them for the contributions they have made to our community and for the lasting impact they leave behind. We also extend our sincere appreciation to their families for their partnership, support and commitment throughout the years.

While graduation marks the end of one journey, it also marks the beginning of a lifelong connection to QMS. We hope each of our Lifers carries the lessons, friendships and memories of their time here wherever life takes them and remains connected to the school community for years to come.

“As we forge our endless chain;
Past with Present joining Future
True Links of QMS may each remain.”

— The QMS School Song

Congratulations to our QMS Lifers. Once a Royal, always a Royal.
