YOU ARE THEIR LIFE’S WORK. Imagine

a video production classroom where your teacher is an Emmy-winning director and producer. Or a Global Studies and Service program that includes a teacher who, as an educator in South Africa, built a democracytraining curriculum connecting student service projects with local NGOs. Maybe you’ll be inspired by the work your science teachers do with a dwindling group of indigenous people in a remote region of the Amazon rainforest. Perhaps you’ll recognize the distinctive baritone leading your choral music class from the Disney soundtracks you grew up listening to—Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Mulan. Or aspire to win a Stanley Cup one day, just as your hockey coach did. All of this happens at Taft every day. Our faculty not only bring a world of academic experience to our halls, they bring their experience in the world, and put it to work for you—in the classroom, on the playing field, in the dormitories, as teachers, coaches, deans, and advisors. You are, quite simply, their life’s work.
