  • Quaker Values
    ASSISTANT HEAD OF SCHOOL START DATE: JULY 2021 www.cfsnc.org MISSION STATEMENT Carolina Friends School is a vibrant and inclusive learning com- munity empowering students to think critically, creatively, and independently. 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. OVERVIEW Carolina Friends School is a preK-12 co-ed day school inspired by Quaker values, committed to excellence in all we do. We believe the best education amplifies a child’s curiosity, courage, and creative thinking. Every day, we empower our students to question the world around them, discover their passions, think deeply, and use their voices in service of the greater good. Because when our students are taught how to think, not just what to think, they are prepared to confidently navigate their own path, advocate for themselves and others, and impact the world around them. Carolina Friends School is seeking a thoughtful, collaborative Assistant Head for Teaching and Learning to begin July 1, 2021. Working with the Head of School, unit (division) heads, and staff, the position will be crucial in the School’s development of core teaching and learning initiatives that are driven by the School’s pedagogical beliefs and values. A member of the school’s senior leadership team, the Assistant Head of School for Teaching and Learning will have key responsibilities for facilitating strategic academic initiatives, including curriculum design and implementation, and teacher pedagogy and professional growth.

  • August 2019 Newsletter
    August 2019 From the Deacon’s Bench This month we celebrate someone who I truly admire, St. Laurence the Deacon! His feast day is August 10th. He is an inspiration to me because of how he lived, his dedication to his faith, and how he faced death with courage and hope. Laurence was one of the seven deacons serving in Rome during the Roman Empire. He was entrusted with the care of the poor, the sick, and the less privileged. Laurence worked hard to fulfill that assignment, caring for the least in the city, all those who had no food to eat and no one to care for them. When the Emperor called for the execution of all Christians and their leaders, he also called for the confiscation of all the Christian properties, to be taken up into the Empire’s treasury. And Laurence, knowing that they would also take away all that had been set aside for the poor, he gave all the wealth to the poor as fast as he could so that the Emperor and his forces would not be able to seize them. Defiant to the end, Laurence refused to give in to the Emperor and his demands, and when forced to reveal where the treasures of the church were, he showed them the poor, the sick, the orphans, and the dying as the true treasures of the church, saying defiantly that they all are far richer and wealthier than the whole Roman Empire would ever be. And thus, he met his end, his death with pride and complete faith in the Lord.

    Carolina Friends School Fall 2006 CFS Trustees Design Inclusive Visioning Process for Long-Range Planning Implementation of this next plan will begin in the 2007-08 school year and continue through 2011-12. The Board devoted its 2005-06 meetings to learning about issues and trends of potential impact on CFS. Discussion topics ranged from technology, demographics, economics, facilities, and land use to con- cepts of globalization, greening, and sustainability. As noted in the minutes of the June 2006 Board Meeting, “Friends expressed both excitement about the opportunity to engage in strate- gic planning and apprehension about whether we can ever be fully pre- pared for such a large task. There was strong support and deep appre- ciation for the solid foundation of the School philosophy and the cur- rent good health of the School -- in terms of staff, board, finances, stu- dents and community -- which gives us faith to move forward.
