Messages from Our Head of School

It is with great sadness that I share this message with you this evening.  Earlier today, we learned of two losses within our TQS family.

We live in a high-anxiety age, where news outlets on all sides make money by whipping us into a frenzy and everyone on Instagram is both better looking and has a more interesting life than me. But here's the thing: despite it all, 2019 was a really positive year.

Recently, I have been reflecting on the idea of place -- what it means, how it shapes us, and how we shape it. 

Perhaps it’s because this is my fifth year serving as Head of School at The Quaker School at Horsham, which means it is also my fifth year living in the Delaware Valley -- a place that has definitely made an impact on my life and my family.

If it seems like every time you open an email from me, you get delivered big news ... well get used to it, because the next few weeks (months! years!) are going to be pretty epic.

Nicole has already taught many of your children, and if you have had the pleasure of working with her you know exactly why she was ultimately selected for the position by the search committee. 

We here at The Quaker School at Horsham have been building up to this new groundbreaking moment since our founding. 

The World Cup is the embodiment of what it looks like when a group of strong, determined individuals join forces and move forward together to win what can seem like an unattainable goal. It’s truly amazing to watch. 

Have you ever noticed that when you walk into most art galleries, the most important pieces, or the works by the most renowned artists, are always displayed closest to eye level?
