From the Search Committee Chair

February 5, 2026

Dear Advent Faculty, Staff, and Parents,

As Bill Wharton continues his leadership of The Advent School, the Search Committee is moving forward in the process of finding a new permanent Head of School.  

Our search consultant from RG175, Jerry Katz, visited Advent on January 12 and 13, and the Search Committee would like to thank the entire community for all of their input during both the onsite visit and through the survey for the next Head of School. 

The input was extremely helpful and helped shape the final position statement that can be found here. 

The position statement is currently being used to solicit applications. The Committee will be reviewing resumes at the end of March and scheduling in person interviews for April.

We are excited to be starting this next phase of process and are grateful to all of you for your partnership to date!

Sincerely,

Lauren Goff, Search Committee Chair
