Job Description

Note to Applicants
Chinquapin is unlike any other boarding school. Serving bright, underserved students, it combines academic rigor with a deep culture of shared responsibility. At Chinquapin, students live on campus Monday-Friday. In line with the School's aim of developing community-minded leaders, students clean their own dorms, serve the wider community, and prepare for top colleges-often as the first in their families to attend. The Head of School is part of daily campus life as a front-line leader: teaching, mentoring, problem-solving, and building relationships. This is a role for someone who thrives in close community, welcomes challenges, leads by example, and believes deeply in the power of education to change lives.

Summary Job Description
The Head of School leads the educational mission of the school, fosters and maintains the school's culture of mutual contribution, nurtures and expands school relationships, and supports the promotion of school awareness in the community. The Head of School is employed by and is accountable to the Board of Trustees (the Board) and is responsible for daily operational management of the school, including but not limited to curriculum and instruction, student life, business affairs, admissions, and advancement, subject to the Board's governance policies and oversight. The Head of School serves as a key spokesperson for the school-either directly or through designated representatives-with primary responsibility for communication with the Board, students, parents, faculty, staff, prospective families, agencies, accrediting bodies, alumni, and vendors.

Required:

  • Experience in school administration, preferably school leadership and/or boarding school administration
  • Residence on campus in the Head of School's Residence
