    LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITY Peddie School Hightstown, New Jersey Director of Athletics Application Deadline A.S.A.P. – For full consideration, apply by January 28. Wickenden Associates | Princeton, New Jersey | 609 683 1355 | www.wickenden.com INTRODUCTION Founded in 1864, Peddie School is an independent, coeducational, college preparatory school of 550 students, grades 9 – PG. It is primarily a boarding school, with 63 percent of the students and 90 percent of the faculty living on campus. Thanks to the generosity of a $100 million gift in 1993 from Ambassador Walter H. Annenberg ’27, Peddie ranks among the most highly endowed independent schools in the nation. Its $325 million endowment enables the school to offer $8.7 million in financial aid to more than 40 percent of the student body. The school’s rigorous educational program, high- achieving students, substantial endowment, beautiful facilities, and strong admission demand place the school squarely in the ranks of the nation’s top boarding schools. Yet, Peddie differs from its peer schools in some key aspects. Committed since its founding to serving a broadly diverse student body, the school’s friendly culture and egalitarian spirit are among its distinguishing features. The school is known for its warm, unpretentious, entrepreneurial culture, as well as its collaborative, professional faculty. Peddie also boasts a picturesque campus featuring 57 buildings on 280 acres and a convenient location midway between New York City and Philadelphia. For a position to begin in July 2020, Peddie is seeking an experienced, visionary leader to assume responsibility for the school’s extensive athletics program. The next director will join a highly effective senior administrative team and inherit an experienced and knowledgeable staff – including a strong corps of adjunct coaches and teacher-coaches.
