“For my family, it wasn't about public versus private. It was about Advent versus all other schools.”
“Advent delivers socially conscious, emotionally nurturing education that helped our child mature into a thoughtful, empathetic young adult.”
“I think of Advent as a school embedded in the community and city, with a mission to create student leaders who will help to improve their home communities further.”
“Advent empowers students to be active in their community and education by giving them the tools to explore all facets of their identity.”
“The teachers are the best I have seen. They are simply outstanding.”

The summer of 2025 marked a significant milestone, as it brought my head of school contract to a close. After thoughtful reflection and collaboration with the Board of Trustees, we agreed that this was the right moment to transition leadership at The Advent School.
