Why join the 1811 Society?
Support the future of Th ornton Academy
“
When one gets older
there is a thought
process, which asks the
question of giving back to the
most important infl uences
in one’s life. I had a degree
of success in my life and in
one form or another I wished
to pay back the someone or
something that helped me.
Th e fi rst and foremost reason
was my mom. She struggled to bring me to the United States
and worked hard to raise and educate me and I cannot
overestimate how strongly she felt about education so I
could have opportunities in the future.
Th e fi rst non-family infl uence was the Saco school system.
What I remember most was my four years at Th ornton
Academy. I may not have been the best student, but I
absorbed so much from my teachers. I found that lessons I
learned were invaluable to me in the future.
Th e friends that I made have been enduring throughout
the decades and continue this very moment. I learned so
much more than I can express. Giving to the 1811 Society
was an easy decision and one I will continue to honor in the
coming years."
Peter Diakos, Class of 1959
