@ThacherParent - sorry to offend. I of course value the friendship and good-natured rivalry between Cate and Thacher (I have posted about how much I appreciated it in how they responded to the fire), and believe Thacher does a great job educating the whole child. I don’t think any of the comments say anything different.

At most, I read the comments as an observation about administrative choices about marketing and p.r., and that perhaps there is a mismatch between the school’s recent choices in those regards and their mission. For me, it comes from a place of respect and confusion to give that honest opinion. I also wonder if it is a recent departure from historically how the school handles things. @ThacherParent , is that a shift you or your son have perceived?
