"The Mission of the School today remains essentially unchanged from that of its modest beginnings over one hundred years ago. While remaining true to its traditional task of preparing students for admission to college and equipping them with the contemporary knowledge and tools for a successful course of higher education, Thacher continues to train young men and women in the art of living for their own greatest good and for the greatest good of their fellow citizens in the increasingly diverse society of a complex world.
To these ends, a scholarly and able faculty encourages and expects:
- excellence of students in the School’s classrooms, laboratories, and studios
- a lifelong love of truth and learning
- exemplary levels of performance and sportsmanship on the playing fields and courts
- high standards of conduct in all relationships and activities
- civil courtesy throughout the School’s daily round.
The School’s extraordinary location and traditional family environment promote the virtues of personal growth and self-reliance tempered by an increasing awareness of the needs of others and a shared responsibility for a healthy and happy community."
