[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Joan Holden is a standout in her field - you're hard pressed to find a head of school who has more integrity and vision than she does.  She's got a tough job - I wouldn't want it - but she's done it so successfully for 25+ years and has lead the school through a merger of the boys school and the girls school, campus building projects, fund raising campaigns, faculty and staff professional development that is strides above other schools, always vigilant with the budget and tuition increases, visible each week on each campus for chapel, plays, athletic games, book discussions.  She's hands-on, smart, compassionate, and full of honor.  She isn't looking to be popular with her decisions, she's looking to be responsible and fair.  That's who I want leading a school and she's a true leader, guided by her own mind and heart, not by parental pressure or whim.  I'm an SSSAS parent and the school wouldn't be the incredible place it is without her commitment.  I'm so grateful to her - she's incredible.[/quote]

Just so people know, Joan Holden has an outstanding reputation in the wider independent school world, basically for the reasons stated above.  (No connection to SSSAS except having watched our kids lose to their kids in some girls' sports over the years.)[/quote]
