I am now teaching art at a private school in Richmond Hill (okay, you don't have to laugh that hard!)
If there is one definitive Thornton Hall/Miss Greig story that I will always remember it would be about my name. In the beginning of my first year Miss Greig called me by the name that I have always used, Catherine. However, halfway through the first year she decided that she liked my middle name better and began to call me Catherine Wannita. I became known by both names for the rest of that year and the beginning of the next. By the middle of my second and graduating year, Miss Greig had decided that both names were too long and since she liked Wannita that is how I should be addressed. So when I graduated, I graduated as Wannita Coulter. Over the years, I have run into a few Thornton Hall classmates, and if I don't refer to myself as Wannita, they never know who I am. Only Miss Greig could change a person's name!
