Upper School Faculty - Tom Marberger

Seniors, commencement is fast approaching!  Although some of you are on wait-lists, you should all have made deposits to hold your spot at your top choice school. Should you get offered a spot from a wait list, please base your decision on whether or not to accept on the aspects of the school that led you to apply in the first place. Don’t hold a grudge. In the fall nobody will know (unless you tell) that you got in from the wait list. Seniors, please maintain academic focus for just a little while longer.  Finish the year strongly.

Juniors, the spotlight of attention has already begun to shift to you as the new President and Vice President have started running morning meeting.  I know many of you are feeling the pressure of AP exams, term papers, essays, and sports – everything seems to be happening at once.  Hang in there; the relief of summer will soon arrive. However, remember this feeling well and think carefully about what courses you choose for next year. Ask the seniors what their October was like. Take a load next year that allows you to keep your life in balance. 

To all students, good luck on your exams and in your games this last month.  Seniors, enjoy the final few days!
