Review Excerpt:

"While most outsiders are quick to mention the horse program as paramount in the Thacher experience I believe that many other aspects of the school deserve high recognition and praise - elements that cannot be quantified or enumerated on a list. Primarily, student - teacher collaboration is held to be of utmost importance at the school. Each student hand picks their advisor for their upcoming academic year. Each student must approach a faculty member to help advise them through their Senior Exhibition project in the senior year, outside of their normal advising. Practically every faculty member lives on the school campus..." - The Thacher School alumni, Class of 2002
