Letter from the student body president

Student Body President Josh Williams ’25 – Communications

Fords,

We made it through one month of school. For me, it flew by really fast. 

In a previous letter I talked about cherishing this year. In a mere eight months, all my fellow Sixth Formers and I will be walking the stage at graduation. 

Sixth Formers, we have to make sure we make this year special, not just for ourselves, but for those that come after us. Once we’re gone, it will be on the Fifth Formers to be the role models for the school. It will be time for the Fourth Formers to step into the upperclassmen roles. For the Third Form, gone will be the times of being high school newbies. 

All of us will step into new roles next fall. We have to take this time to prepare for that change. 

On a less serious note, October is one of my favorite times of the year. Everyone has finally adjusted to the school routine after months of beach time. Fords football enters the league games. Fall sports ramp up in general. The fall play starts production. Clubs hit their stride. The Phillies go on a historic run. And many more exciting things happen in October. 

Eight months of school left, what are you willing to do to make it special?

The first month of school was great, but let’s keep the momentum going for October. Let’s make Haverford sporting events even more electric. Even if you’re not into sports, show up to a Fords game to support your brothers. 

This school only works if we continue to support each other, so let’s continue that support in this exciting month. 

Eight months of school left, what are you willing to do to make it special?

Thanks,

Josh Williams
