We foster active exploration and quiet reflection, individual endeavor and collaborative engagement. Inspired by Quaker values—pursuit of truth, respect for all, peaceful resolution of conflict, simplicity, the call to service—we teach our children that it is possible to change the world. THE SCHOOL: HISTORY & ENROLLMENT Carolina Friends School (CFS) is an independent, co-educational Quaker day school founded in 1962 by members of the Durham and Chapel Hill Meetings of the Religious Society of Friends. Upon its founding, CFS became one of the first schools in the South to pursue a policy of racial integration. CFS graduated its first class in 1974. Today, CFS enrolls approximately 500 students in early childhood to 12th grade with approximately 175 students in the Upper School. Each year, approximately 97% of our graduates attend four-year colleges and universities, and 3% attend two-year institutions, travel, pursue public service opportunities, or directly enter the workforce. CURRICULUM CFS operates on a trimester system with graduation requirements that encourage students to balance academic, athletic, and artistic interests. By design, CFS does not designate courses with distinctions such as honors or Advanced Placement. EVALUATION The Upper School uses a non-graded, non-ranked narrative evaluation system that is personal and comprehensive.

Faculty with Advanced Degrees: 114 THE POSITION The Potomac School in McLean, Virginia, seeks an experienced administrator to serve as Director of the K-12 Academic Program effective July 2019. Potomac enjoys an extraordinary reputation as one of the top independent K-12 day schools in the nation; the School enrolls 1,054 students on a spectacular 90-acre campus just minutes from Washington, D.C. Since its founding near Washington’s Dupont Circle in 1904, Potomac School’s educational philosophy has defined the learning process as an exploratory endeavor driven by students’ natural curiosity and interests. From kindergarten through 12th grade, Potomac faculty seek to develop engaged learners who possess both the intellectual abilities and the character traits needed to thrive in a rapidly changing and demanding society. Each year, Potomac students produce impressive test scores and college placement results, yet the School does not view these metrics as the singular goal of its educational program. With applications at the highest level to date, the appointment of John Kowalik as Head of School, the development of several signature programs, and a century of academic excellence behind it, Potomac is entering one of the most exciting periods in its history.

  • December 2017 Principal’S Welcome
    Newsletter December 2017 Principal’s Welcome A week is a long time in the life of a school. The snow has completely disappeared but this time last weekend I was glued to social media and the online weather forecast, trying to make sure that I’d got every available piece of information to help me decide about school closure. Regardless of the decision, there was one thing that would not be in doubt - there was always going to be somebody who would disagree. This has always been the case, but what is noticeably different now is the willingness with which some individuals rush to post their outrage online, including some who are old enough to know better. I guess I should see this as part of the territory, a challenge amongst many of being Principal of such a high-profile institution as AGS. I think I've learnt to deal with it pretty well, but it did bring home to me just how difficult it must be for some of our youngsters when they first enter the online world, unaware of its capacity for irrational and harmful content and the opportunities for people to comment without thinking. It’s been a sensible decision that in my professional capacity I stay away from Facebook, and don’t use WhatsApp - an app that has many useful features but whose overuse we are beginning to see increasingly associated with poor mental health due to the distress caused by over-sharing or sharing of inaccurate information. And that’s before we get into the inadvertent safeguarding risks of sharing information about a child with a group where you cannot be 100% certain of the background of everyone.
