At Canton Country Day School, John Lothrop was a much-loved teacher, mentor, and colleague, who dedicated 53 years of his life to teaching math. Although math was a passion, he was most devoted to providing educators a time to renew, recharge, and re-energize, knowing that self-care would make for better teachers.
Mr. Lo, as he was affectionately known, firmly believed, that by doing so, teachers would grow in confidence, enthusiasm, and sense of purpose. Putting his words into action, each year, Mr. Lo would generously underwrite the CCDS Spring Retreat for faculty and staff, an event he eagerly looked forward to. He found no greater joy than connecting with nature as a way to holistically feed the body and spirit.
