This year is already off to a great start! Coming back after a busy summer was great, and settling back into the Thacher routine is comforting, and I am reminded how lucky I am to be in such a great place. One aspect of the Thacher life that I appreciate more than ever is the assembly period. Three times a week the Thacher student and faculty body gather to share good news, laughs and accomplishments. This year we have had two robot demonstrations from Mr. Meyer and a baby announcement from Mrs. and Mr. Snyder. I often find myself smiling during these assemblies and I fall in love with Thacher over again.
