Our family has been part of the W.A. community since 2003. My son arrived in 2003 as a 6th grader, and all his siblings joined the community as 6th graders. They are lifers. Their graduation years are Neil 2010, Daley 2012, Danny 2014, and Keelan 2016. I joined the community in 2008 as a cross-country coach and then as a teacher in 2009. My family and I believe in Worcester Academy and treasure our memories on the hilltop.
