Each summer, Forman School alumni return to campus as Summer Program Counselors, eager to give back to the community that supported them. We caught up with our 2025 alumni counselors to hear about their experiences of seeing Forman from a new perspective and where they are today.  

Dylan Antoine ’21 was one of several alumni who returned to work with students this summer and built meaningful relationships with the campers.

What made you decide to be a Summer Program Counselor? 

I really enjoy working with kids, and I wanted to reconnect with my Forman family. 

What has been the most rewarding part of this experience?

It has been rewarding to bond with the kids, knowing that I made a good impact on their lives.

What skills have you developed or improved through this experience?

Definitely metalsmithing

Dylan is studying Early Childhood Education at CT State and has a long-term goal of opening a daycare. She is also pursuing her passion for music.

“I’m still writing and singing music, so overall, my main goal I’ve been working towards since I was a kid is to be an artist/performer and a ghost writer,” Dylan says. “Every month, I perform at different places. I’ve really been working to make my dream come true.”
