    The Daily Thistle and Sisters' Pride with Kendall Quinn, Friday, May 17, 2024

    In the grand tradition of capturing the essence and spirit of youth, Kendall Quinn has been the steadfast voice behind over 250 episodes of “Sister’s Pride,” reaching an audience of more than 10,000 unique listeners. Her tales woven from the daily lives at a quaint Episcopal girls’ boarding school nestled along the tranquil shores of the Rappahannock River in Tappahannock, Virginia, have touched many a heart. Today, we salute her as she prepares to trade the familiar sunrises over the Rappahannock for the golden sunsets of the Pacific Ocean, moving on to new adventures at Claremont College in California.



    Kendall, an East Coast girl through and through, has grown before our very eyes. She has led with grace as Head Prefect, embodying the virtues of leadership with an impeccable character that St. Margaret’s aims to cultivate in all its students. It is with both pride and a touch of sadness that we, the St. Margaret’s community, extend our deepest gratitude to Kendall Quinn. Thank you, Kendall, for your inspiring leadership and for leaving an indelible mark on our hearts and on the hallowed halls of St. Margaret’s School, here, on the banks of the Rapphannock River in Tappahannock, Virginia.

Mcabocel ,

Great way to keep up with daily life at SMS!

I love your podcast. It makes me feel like I am a little part of St Margaret’s on a day to day basis. One note: I play it on my iPhobe 12 while I run, and the music often overpowers the speakers, especially when more than one person is speaking. Thanks for the updates and the connection!
