WOODSTOCK — Woodstock Academy Headmaster Kim Caron and Associate Headmaster/Principal Holly Singleton were pleased to honor the 94 members of the Class of 2014 who reached the highest scores possible in all four areas of the Connecticut Academic Performance Test in 2012.
Kate Field, dean of Curriculum, was the keynote speaker, sharing a message of encouragement to students to continue to pursue the excellence they have demonstrated. “You are clearly using your education to improve yourself, to expand your mind, and to make your dreams a reality,” she told students. She reminded them “how very fortunate they were to live in this country and to be able to go to school every day,” comparing the less fortunate children in the world who do not have the same privilege.
