On Friday we had our fourth Lower School Principal candidate spend the day with us. The candidate and I worked together at Flint Hill from 2001-2006 and it was great to see him again. After his day on campus we had some time to catch up more casually and he commented on the warm and talented community here at Friends’ Central. I felt very lucky to be a part of this incredible community. I know he went away from his visit understanding what makes FCS so special.
