Head of School Weekly Email: Parent Survey, Arts Night & Finals Week

Dear TA Families,

Annual Parent Survey – Deadline May 30
If you haven’t yet, just a reminder to parents and guardians to please take our annual school climate survey. We cover a lot of topics in the survey but try to keep the format user-friendly – should take only about 10 minutes to complete. Your feedback helps inform our efforts to build on our strengths and address our challenges – always with an eye to becoming our best version of Thetford Academy!

Looking ahead to the final week of the school year, please take note of the special schedules, and half-day dismissal Tuesday through Friday. Here is an overview of the week: LINK.

Featured photos this week: We wove some silly fun into our rainy days, with our annual spring ‘student appreciation’ week. We kicked off on Monday with ‘dress like a student and dress like a teacher’ day and wrapped up the week with field day plans pivoting indoors, including karaoke in the theater, board games in the library, and nitro ball in the gym. 

We will be back at school on Tuesday, May 27. Wishing everyone an enjoyable holiday weekend and a meaningful Memorial Day.

Carrie Brennan, Head of School
