SCHOOL HISTORY Thayer Academy was founded in 1877 at the bequest of Braintree native, general and philanthropist Sylvanus Thayer, who is also known as the father of the United States Military Academy at West Point and founder of the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College. In the early years, tuition at the Thayer Academy was free for students from Old Braintree (Braintree, Quincy, Randolph, and Holbrook). The Academy would develop over time into a leading independent school in the region— attracting students from numerous communities. CARNEYSANDOE.COM 2 FAST FACTS Founded: 1877 Total students: 710 Students of color: 18% Total faculty: 108 Faculty of color: 14.7% Faculty with advanced degrees: 68% Student/teacher ratio: 6:1 Zip codes represented: 76 Financial aid budget: $7.7 million Students receiving aid: 35% In the 1960s, the school opened the Asian Institute to offer courses in Mandarin, Chinese, Japanese, and Asian Studies. The success of the program earned the Academy the only invitation extended to a secondary school to participate in the 1964 World’s Fair in New York City. THE SCHOOL From the start, Thayer Academy has fostered a coeducational environment that affords equal access to students from a broad range of socioeconomic circumstances. Today, small classes, excellent and inspiring teachers, outstanding facilities, and rigorous academic standards stand at the center of its mission. Thayer emphasizes the development of strong reading, writing, research, and computational skills, and at the same time, works to infuse students with a passion for learning. In addition, the school offers a rich array of extracurricular pursuits, particularly in the arts, athletics, and community service. As part of its global focus, the Academy also offers 16 international and domestic travel programs. In support of the academic success of all students, Thayer’s learning resources include an active writing center, technology center, and learning center. A distinctive feature of Thayer is its socioeconomic diversity. More than one-third of students receive financial aid, and the Academy’s budget to support financial aid is one of the most generous among private schools in the Boston area. The result is that Thayer has a mix of students that reflects the broad spectrum of communities in the region. CARNEYSANDOE.COM 3 Thayer also found and operates RISE (Respect, Integrity, and Success through Education)—an academic enrichment program that runs both in the summer and during the school year. Each summer, approximately 100 students of color in grades 3-10 come from the Boston metro area to attend small classes and receive individualized instruction over a seven-week period. The program empowers students through challenging academic coursework, cultural education, and community-building activities. DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION In accord with the school mission, Thayer Academy is wholly committed to strengthen its school culture so that every student feels known, connected, and prepared to embrace diverse learning opportunities on and beyond its campus. In the fall of 2020, the Thayer Academy Board of Trustees approved a Strategic Plan for Racial Equity and Justice. This plan includes a focus on creating an antiracist curriculum, building, and supporting an antiracist school culture, developing related teacher and administrator professional development, improving hiring and admission practices, and affirming the board’s commitment to antiracist leadership. To obtain success in all these areas, the plan calls for a detailed combination of transparency, accountability, representation, school cultural expectations, and antiracism education. The board is also committed to providing the necessary funds to support DEI initiatives and will direct operational funds over the coming year to provide the DEI Office with another staff member and the Upper School with an additional school counselor of color to offer guidance and support in both the realms of emotional well-being and college guidance.
