The cold, dark, and long winter has finally and completely ended. Tabor Academy, like the rest of the Tri-Town area, is welcoming the return of a warm spring. The change has been duly noted.
Tabor boys begin wearing shorts in earnest as the weather warms up, although a small following has worn shorts since March Break. The trend has gained momentum after the weather shift.
Students lounge on the fields, enjoying the sun and cool breeze in almost summer-like weather. Frisbees, volleyballs, and other tools of enjoyment appear in great numbers as the Tabor community enjoys its free time outside as opposed to in the dorms. Teachers are persuaded to hold class outside to the delight of their students.
Trees are blooming in full and the harbor appears a stunning blue paradise. The fields are occupied by frivolous fun and games as students enjoy the reemergence of spring. With spring sports well underway, many athletes compete in their respective passions, from the defending national champion sailing team, to the small and young, but ever-spirited track and field teams.
In about a month, Springfest, the annual Tabor celebration of the end of the school year, will incorporate all of the great aspects of Tabor Academy in the springtime. Even with AP exams, finals, and term projects looming in the future, for now, the summer weather has Tabor Academy ecstatic.
