Dear ACS Community,
I would like to update you on our Head of School Search.
The Search Committee has had many productive meetings with our consultant Anne Coyle and her team at Russell Reynolds Associates. We are all very excited about the candidates and pleased with the feedback we have received from them about ACS and this opportunity.
As you know, we are currently conducting this search on a national, open, and inclusive basis, and we believe you will be happy to know that the Avery Coonley School and our Mission have resonated with highly qualified candidates from vast geographies, varied experiences and diverse backgrounds. This distinguished group of educators shares our enthusiasm about educating our children and are excited about the possibilities at ACS.
The Committee takes the confidence placed in us very seriously and I want to assure you that a commitment to educating gifted children, in an inclusive and nurturing community, is paramount in our deliberations.
I thank our community members who have reached out to me to offer valuable input, and those who have suggested candidates for consideration. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me at pveluchamy@averycoonley.org or to Russell Reynolds Associates at AveryCoonley@russellreynolds.com, with questions.
I look forward to sharing more information as we move closer to identifying and welcoming our next Head of School.
Thank you,
Sreeram Prasad Veluchamy
Search Committee Chair
