Honorable Richard Price - Class of 1976 (Alumni Monday Speaker)
It was a great pleasure to be joined by SAA alumnus The Honorable Richard Price, class of '76, as our Alumni Monday Speaker on September 11, 2023. Judge Price spoke to our boys about his time here at The Academy and the valuable lessons and principles he learned and kept with him throughout his life.
Judge Price attended SAA from the 2nd to the 8th grade, recounting being involved in many activities. One of his most memorable accolades while attending The Academy was when he was awarded "The Colonel's Cup," in the 4th grade as the first ever cadet to receive this award in 1972. This is an award given to a cadet with the highest scholarship and showing ethics, leadership, and concern for others.
He went on to talk about the amount of impact that The Academy had on him in traits such as leadership, pride, integrity, honesty, and ethics that he kept and grew as he furthered his education and, eventually, his career. Judge Price went to school and became an attorney for many years before he became a judge in 2005.
He concluded by crediting his success and achievements in the field of law to what he learned as a boy while attending SAA. He thanked and recognized people who made an impact on him, such as Col. Bondurant, Prof. Jim Bruno, and many others.
Thank you, Judge Price, for sharing your wonderful memories and a very inspiring message with us.

SAA's annual Alumni Day is around the corner. For this event, alumni of all ages are invited to attend, will be recognized at Chapel, and will serve as the reviewing party during the first parade of the school year held that morning. This is an important event for 3rd graders and new Upper School students, as these boys will be taking the Joining Oath before officially joining their companies for the parade. Parents of these boys will not want to miss it!
