<p>Congratulations to all on your admission to Deerfield. You are a lucky bunch considering the odds. Aren't you so excited? We have a fabulous program for you. Come explore the Academics, Arts, and Athletics at Deerfield. We have everything you need to pursue your passions and more. Come explore what a close-knit boarding school family of students and teachers is like where everyone knows your name. It's hard to leave the campus after the revisits, I know, my parents had to drag me home last year. Look forward seeing you all. Any questions?</p>
<p>What happens on revisit days? Do you get matched up with a current student who has similar interests then visit all their classes, extracurriculars, and their dorm?</p>
<p>The basic format is: After registration, there will be an informal fair to meet with the coaches. Visiting students are paired with Deerfield students to attend classes, visit dorms, and eat a sit-down lunch. Parents attend a Teacher panel discussion and a sit-down lunch. The white chocolate chip and cranberry cookies were great last year! After lunch, there will be an Administration panel discussion, a Student panel discussion, and a tour of the campus (optional). The revisit days are a lot of fun and you’ll love it.</p>
<p>I hope you had awesome revisits. If you have any questions, I’m happy to help.</p>
<p>GO BIG GREEN!!</p>
<p>It is unbelievable how much Deerfield has recovered from the devastation brought by the storms last summer. Glad to see the place look so Green.</p>
<p>Enjoy the Video: [Welcome</a> to Deerfield](<a href=“http://deerfield.edu/2012/04/welcome-to-deerfield/]Welcome”>http://deerfield.edu/2012/04/welcome-to-deerfield/)</p>
<p>For some reason when I watch this video I feel this weird sense of accomplishment because I actually met some of these students yesterday.</p>
<p>What a great video! My daughter was waitlisted but she is determined to graduate from Deerfield whether she is accepted this year or her senior year. She is in a negative situation in her current school and has been bullied since the fifth grade for being smart and raising her hand in class. The video highlights some of the wonderful aspects about Deerfield that she fell in love with. After we visited last year she looked at me and said this must be the feeling women describe when they find their wedding dress. They can’t always voice in words why the dress is right for them, it is more of a feelng. I hope she will be able to join the incoming class this year and is taken off the wait list. If not, I know she wil apply again next year.</p>
