About the 2009 Gala
The ninth consecutive Annual Gala of the Brookline High School 21st Century Fund took place on October 23 and 24, 2009.  Many parents, alumni, members of the vibrant Brookline community, and other supporters of the Fund, joined the 21st Century Fund to celebrate the 21st Century Fund’s continued commitment to excellence.
