According to Kuykendall, Thermond has been a valuable source of stability. “Ms. Thermond is a pillar in Paly Theatre and has given our students the confidence to become internationally recognized performers,” Kuykendall said. “The past two years have been the hardest our community has faced, and Ms. Thermond is our safe adult on campus. … She has anchored us at a time when we are navigating grief, uncertainty, and fear.
