  • May 26, 2021 Dear Whitfield School Community: on Behalf of the Board
    Whitfield School 175 S. Mason Road Saint Louis, Missouri 63141 (314) 434-5141 www.whitfieldschool.org May 26, 2021 Dear Whitfield School Community: On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am pleased to announce that Chris Cunningham has accepted our invitation to serve as the next Head of Whitfield School, effective July 1, 2022. As you know, John Delautre will be retiring at the end of the 2021-2022 academic year after 10 years of outstanding service to our School, and we will enjoy his leadership for the next fourteen months, thus ensuring a smooth transition. Beginning in January 2021, the Search Committee, chaired by Karen Myers, worked with search consultants Nat Conard and Deirdre Ling of Educators’ Collaborative, and reviewed the credentials of candidates from throughout the U.S. and abroad. The Committee narrowed the pool of candidates to eight individuals who were invited for a confidential round of virtual interviews. Subsequently, four finalists and spouses/partners visited the campus for comprehensive two-day interviews. On May 20, the Search Committee selected Chris Cunningham as its nominee to the Board of Trustees to serve as the next Head of School. The Trustees unanimously ratified this recommendation at a Board meeting on May 25. Chris has spent the past twenty-five years in independent school education. Receiving a bachelor’s degree in Modern Thought and Literature from Stanford University in 1989, he graduated Phi Beta Kappa with Distinction and Honors. He went on to complete a Ph.D. in English from Duke University in 1996. Beginning his independent school teaching career as a 9th and 11th grade English teacher at Montclair Kimberley Academy, Chris later taught at Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart and Princeton Day School before joining the faculty at The Lawrenceville School in Lawrenceville, NJ, where he is currently the Assistant Head of School and Dean of Faculty, having served since 2003 as English teacher, Head of House, Advisor, and Varsity Coach.

    Loomis Chaffee Log SEPTEMBER 26, 2016 Issue 101, No. 1 thelclog.org M I N D OVER MATTER Graphic by Anh Nguyen ’17 How should we navigate this year’s vague all-school theme, “MIND OVER MATTER?” very year, the all-school theme encourages students to stretch the “Loomis bubble” and think critically about day to day oc- currences — from the environmental implications of fl ipping a light switch to the media we consume on Twitter. This year, the schoolE theme was fi rst alluded to in our puzzling all-school read, The Little Prince. During the fi rst weeks of school, the administration has presented the theme in a narrow sense, raising eyebrows. Is it really that effective to have the junior class do yoga in the quad? Are the talks on de-stressing stressful? Is mindfulness limited to stress relief? Given the emphasis on alleviating the stress we cannot eliminate, it is too easy to dismiss the mantra rather than seriously investing in it.
