More Connected than Ever

While our member schools continue to remain closed and develop methods of distance learning, we find that school communities and the Coalition at large are more connected than ever! In the past month, heads of schools, principals, and Graduate Support Personnel have come together via Coalition ZOOM calls. These live sessions allow for our members to connect across the country (and in Canada!) to share best practices, discuss obstacles, and support each other through these trying times. The next planned sessions are for Advancement/Development personnel and counselors.

We held six zoom sessions, each spanning 10-19 participants! The Coalition will continue to host these sessions into the summer as we continue to support each other and see this pandemic through.

Tenure at St. Andrew’s School: 12 Years

“St. Andrew’s School is very much my second family. It has allowed me to become a better teacher, colleague, friend, mother, and wife. It’s shaped me into who I am today,” Mrs. Ellison says. “I’m passionate about St. Andrew’s School, and believe if I were not here, my life would be incomplete. I just know that this is where I’m supposed to be – I’m here for a reason, and I do not take that for granted.”
