    There's nothing more rewarding than seeing the lasting impact of a successful school leader. This week, our team visited Northstar in Richmond, where Crystal Trent, one of our former placements, has made a transformative difference during her tenure. We’re honored to support Northstar once again in finding the next visionary leader to continue this incredible journey.

    As search consultants, we often don't get to see the impact that the people you place have on a community. That’s why our visit to Northstar in Richmond this week was particularly special. Northstar has always been an important place for children who learn differently, but the space they were using during our previous head search was no longer suitable.  The main goal for the next Head of School at that time was to address this issue, and Crystal Trent, along with her board and staff, has more than succeeded. They have already moved to a new location and building. During my visit, we toured the gym, which is set to open in two months. Crystal's impact on Northstar is immeasurable. As she prepares to move on, the board has once again tasked us with finding an exceptional leader to fill some big shoes. Fortunately, those shoes will be stepping into a fantastic new space!

    ST Search was pleased to assist Saint Thomas' Episcopal School in securing their next Head of School, Seraphim Danckaert. Seraphim has served as Head of School at Allen Academy (Bryan, TX) since 2022, overseeing a period of record enrollment, academic building renovations, and faculty compensation improvements. Prior to this, he was Headmaster at St. Peter's Classical School (Fort Worth, TX), where he improved enrollment, finances, and led the school's re-accreditation. Earlier in his career, he worked at Princeton Theological Seminary, leading enrichment programs and contributing to strategic planning during a $100 million capital campaign. He also previously led the advancement department at St. Tikhon's Seminary and consulted for faith-based schools. Congratulations to Saint Thomas' Episcopal School and to ST consultant Jamie Estes on a successful search!

    At ST Search, we are dedicated to continuous learning, refining our methods, and leveraging our team's skills and expertise to provide schools with practical, results-driven guidance for lasting success. Earlier this year, our Director of Searches, Jamie Estes, and Search Coordinator, Allison Kelley, Ph.D., embarked on an in-depth project to uncover the key elements of a successful Head of School transition. After months of research and interviews with many of our recently placed Heads, they developed actionable insights to help schools navigate this critical period with confidence. To learn more about our findings and how we can assist your school, please contact Jamie Estes at [email protected] or 434-295-9122.
