Lou Gnerre first joined New Hampton School at age 21 as a math teacher and coach in the fall of 1957 following his graduation from Boston University, with his wife Patricia and their first child on the way. His years here witnessed Lou in many roles, speaking to his genuine nature, leadership, and committed work as a relationship builder. As a teacher, coach, mentor, dorm parent, department chair, director of college counseling, director of studies, dean of students, headmaster, and alumni ambassador—Lou's connection to New Hampton School has extended over decades and touched generations of students, families, and friends.
In remembrance of his time here, we welcome past and present school community members to celebrate his legacy through photos, memories, and stories. Please feel free to share a message
