Class reps are the TPA’s icebreakers, the cutting edge that keeps a watchful eye on the parent body and contributes mightily to the smooth running of the week’s activities. This Thursday they dared to leave the trenches unattended for a few hours and gathered at the Beloura Club House for a bite of discreet gossip and sedate revelry. Cameo appearances from Lower School and Upper School Heads, Erica Herro and Alex Wilson, as well as college counselors Diane Bidna and Martha Stern, allowed the matching of faces to names and vice-versa, facilitating connections between these critical contributors to School activity. May this be the first of many such lunches (self-financed, as always, since the TPA never uses its funds on TPA R&R).
