Head of School Search

 

 In September, 2009, Stu Work announced that he will be stepping down as WES Head of School at the end of the 2010-2011 school year.  The entire WES community is grateful to Stu for his ten years of service, his dedication to each student, and his excellent stewardship of our school during his tenure.  

The WES Board of Trustees is now undertaking a deliberative and thoughtful process to select our next Head of School.

The Board has formed a committee to oversee the search for the next Head of School, headed by Board member Jim Young. It is the goal of the Search Committee to keep the WES community informed throughout the process.
