We kicked off the 26-27 year together with our first All School Assembly! Upper School Chorus welcomed everyone with Town’s traditional “Welcome” song, our 8th graders brought both humor and heart with a poetry reading and reflections on our ethical motto of Self, Others, and Surroundings, and Mr. Rachmuth shared a bit of Town’s history. We also gave a warm welcome to our newest faculty and staff!

A joyful start to a new year of learning, growing, and being together at Town!

Math is better when we think together! In the opening days of 5th Grade Math, students tackled a team challenge: working together to find and circle the numbers 1–100 in order. The activity was about more than numbers -- it helped students practice what great collaboration looks like: communicating, staying focused, taking turns, and supporting one another. They now have a great foundation for a year of learning and problem-solving together.

Second graders are starting the year by thinking about what it means to be a thoughtful member of the Town community! Together, they brainstormed expectations for the different spaces they share throughout the day, from the classroom and cafeteria to the roof. Their ideas included “Be kind to others and be safe” on the roof and “Only get what you can eat” in the cafeteria. By creating these expectations together, students are learning that each of us plays a role in making Town a kind, safe, respectful, and caring place for everyone.

Today, we pause to remember and honor those who lost their lives in New York, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania, and to hold close the families, friends, and communities who continue to carry their memories.

We also remember with profound gratitude the first responders and countless others who showed extraordinary courage, compassion, and selflessness in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

Twenty-five years later, we remember, we honor, and we remain grateful for the humanity and care for others that brought people together in the days that followed.

To culminate their Life Skills class on Sustainability this past spring, sixth graders ventured to the FABSCRAP warehouse in Brooklyn. They sorted fabrics, removed metal and plastic bits, and saved large pieces for reuse. This was a great introduction to Civic Engagement, a class that starts in seventh grade. All in all they helped divert 894 lbs of materials from the landfill.
