About the Role

The Company is seeking a visionary, relationship-centered educational leader to serve as the Head of School. The successful candidate will be responsible for guiding the institution with a clear commitment to academic excellence and character development. This role involves working in partnership with the Board of Trustees to sustain and enhance the school's academic program, support and develop exceptional faculty, strengthen enrollment, and ensure the long-term financial vitality of the institution. The Head of School will also be tasked with deepening the school's commitment to belonging and community, and preserving its distinctive culture while preparing students for a dynamic world. Applicants for the Head of School position at the company should be prepared to lead a small, independent day school with a strong sense of community and a diverse student body. The role requires a leader who can foster a joyful, inclusive, and intellectually ambitious learning environment, where students are encouraged to be curious thinkers, articulate communicators, and compassionate citizens. The ideal candidate will have a background in education, a deep understanding of the academic and character development, and the ability to nurture the core values of the institution. A strategic vision for the future, including a focus on innovation and a student-centered approach, is essential. The Head of School will also be expected to engage with all stakeholders, including parents, faculty, staff, and alumni, to ensure that the school continues to be a place where children are genuinely known, valued, and encouraged to become their best selves.
