Head of School Search Committee Update

The Search Committee continues its deliberations about identifying the next Head of School for Frederica Academy. We met as recently as this past Friday and will continue to evaluate candidates as we prepare to make a recommendation to the Board of Trustees. As the process moves forward, we will continue to provide updates especially as it relates to bringing finalists on campus to meet with students, parents, faculty, staff, and trustees.
 
Thank you for your patience as we collectively work towards finding the next Head of School for Frederica Academy.

Please contact me should you have questions.
 
Best regards.
