Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of welcoming our passionate teachers back to campus as we prepare for the new school year. With each passing day, my excitement grows as we approach the first day of school. The joy of seeing our school community come together again is unmatched, and I can’t wait to see the hallways filled with energetic teenagers eager to embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. This year promises to be filled with remarkable moments of learning and connection, and I am thrilled to share this journey with your family.
We are excited to welcome the following staffulty to their new positions and/or new responsibilities:
- Jackie Butler, 9th grade history
- David Glover; 12th grade dean
- Molly Kershner, long-term substitute for Victoria Lirio
- Keith Klingler, 10th grade dean
I also encourage you to check out our Back to School Resources page for additional information and the steps you need to complete by August 16.
Please find important information for the start of the school year below, and as always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
Best,
Rishi
Rishi Raghunathan
Head of Upper School
