Position

The next Head of School will join Saint James at a pivotal moment. The School enjoys an exceptional reputation for moral formation, spiritual grounding, and close-knit community, yet faces familiar challenges shared by many small boarding schools: enrollment pressure, faculty retention, and financial sustainability. The community’s vision for the future includes preserving its Episcopal identity and family-like environment while strengthening academic rigor, expanding local and diverse enrollment, and supporting dedicated faculty. A community of balance, where athletics, the arts, and academics flourish together. A model of Episcopal education, steadfast in faith yet responsive to the changing world.
