Dear Senior Families,

I hope this note finds you well. The snow is slowly starting to melt in Lakeville as we look toward the excitement of the months ahead, especially for the great Class of 2021. As mentioned last week, we remain committed to creating as many special moments as possible for your incredible students from now through June 5.

We are currently working on an array of plans as we know that guidelines from the Department of Health could very well change. Having worked closely with many of you over the past four years, I know what innovative thinkers you are, and would like to invite your participation in some brainstorming calls over the coming weeks. Richard Davis, associate dean of faculty and COVID coordinator, will also join these sessions in addition to some other members of our planning team. 

The dates for each call are listed below. If you would like to participate, please click on the link and follow the registration instructions. On Thursday, March 4, you will receive a registration confirmation along with the Zoom details for your respective call. Please note that in an effort to keep these conversations intimate and to provide everyone with an opportunity to share their ideas, we are limiting the number of participants in each to 25. In the event that all spots are booked and we need to add additional sessions, we are more than happy to do so.

Brainstorm Session #1: Monday, March 8 - 8:00 p.m. EDT
Brainstorm Session #2: Thursday, March 11 - 8:30 p.m. EDT
Brainstorm Session #3: Tuesday, March 16 - 8:00 p.m. EDT

Thank you in advance for your continued support. This is truly an outstanding class whose members deserve great recognition for their perseverance and leadership. 

I look forward to seeing you in March!


Christy Cooper P'08,'11
Dean of the Class of 2021
