Note from Head of School

Dear Families,

As we approach the December break, I want to extend my warmest wishes to the Thacher community. I also want to express my gratitude for your continued partnership. Your support is invaluable, and I look forward to continuing our work together in the coming year.

​On behalf of the entire staff, we would like to wish you a wonderful vacation full of warmth, laughter, and moments of reflection. We hope you find time to rest, rejuvenate, and spend quality moments with your loved ones.

We look forward to welcoming you, especially your children, back on Wednesday, January 3, 2024!

Warmly,

​Deba Dunn
Head of School
