• Partnering with parents through proactive communication, educational opportunities, and parental involvement in WMCH programs;

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES

The next Head of the Whitby Montessori Children’s House will work with an experienced, dedicated, and passionate faculty in a highly regarded Montessori program. The Head of WMCH will benefit from a tight knit community and a schoolwide commitment to continuous improvement and providing an exceptional academic experience in the context of a student-focused program. The priorities, opportunities, and challenges ahead include:

• Serving as a visible presence in the classroom, building relationships with teachers, students, and parents; modeling and supporting effective teaching and learning; and speaking with confidence about the daily work of the WMCH;

• Communicating the value proposition of WMCH to both internal and external audiences, supporting the recruitment and retention of mission-appropriate students;

• Bolstering faculty connections and a spirit of community within WMCH and between WMCH and other departments and schools, including SAIL (learning support) and the Lower School;

• Consistent with Whitby’s commitment to continuous improvement, supporting the professional growth of faculty; and

• Exploring the expansion of the WMCH program to accommodate more comprehensive after-school care.
