  • The Peck School
    THE PECK SCHOOL MORRISTOWN, NEW JERSEY HEAD OF THE UPPER SCHOOL (GRADES 5-8) START DATE: JULY 2019 WWW.PECKSCHOOL.ORG Mission Statement We believe that, in life, knowledge must be guided by values. Through a commitment to character formation and a rigorous and inspirational academic program, The Peck School strives to build in each student the capacity for disciplined learning and consideration of others. With dedicated faculty and families, we prepare our students to succeed in secondary school and to lead healthy, productive, and principled lives. OVERVIEW One of the nation’s finest independent, K-8 coeducational day schools, The Peck School provides the perfect learning environment for children to thrive. Peck melds a proven curriculum with modern methods—and students discover the pure delight of creative thinking and active learning by honoring timeless traditions and supporting timely transformation. Peck’s dedicated K-8 educational model allows for growth, for exploration, for risk-taking, and for failure throughout students’ critical elementary and middle school formative years. It allows for a nurturing environment where children feel challenged, and will challenge themselves, all within a belief that learning is best when it is a joyful process. Children at Peck will know and will be known as they develop into confident learners and leaders as they move through the Peck experience. The school is seeking a Head of the Upper School to lead students and faculty in grades 5-8. Peck students are known for their academic strengths, athletic achievements, artistic expression, leadership skills, and community service, and the new Head will be responsible for ensuring students continue to thrive and succeed across all areas.

During the long, successful run of both tournaments (43 years for boys; 23 years for girls), Princeton Day School has welcomed to its campus the finest independent boarding and day school ice hockey programs, as its Lisa McGraw ’44 Rink has witnessed one stirring, memorable contest after another. Grateful as we are to our participants and sponsors, the tournaments’ guiding spirit and great heart are to be found in one man: tournament director Harry-Rulon Miller ’51. Princeton Day School hockey has flourished because Harry would have it no other way. I know you will agree that these tournaments have flourished – and their reputation has grown – because Harry is a host unlike any other. Thus, it gives me great pleasure to share with you an exciting development.
