Welcome New Heads of Friends Schools in 2024-2025

Drew Smith recognizes the new heads of school joining our Quaker school community this fall. “Welcome one and all! We are confident that your leadership and vision will help guide our schools in nurturing the intellectual and moral development of their students. We look forward to the creativity, compassion, and wisdom that you bring to your new roles, and we are excited to witness the impact you will make in shaping the future of our schools.” These new heads are leading schools located on both the East and West coasts, in the Midwest and in the Southeast. We are pleased to note that one is a graduate of Friends Council’s Institute for Engaging Leadership.

Join us in extending greetings to these eight new heads/interim heads. Share how important the connectivity of this community has been to you and encourage them to reach out to the Friends school network to enrich their experience.
