Oakwood School is a two-campus, K-12 coeducational day school in North Hollywood, California that opened its doors in 1951. Now with over 830 students in grades K-12, the school has remained faithful to its original mission ever since: to create a diverse educational environment where young people are partners with the adults; where preparing students for the future occurs by immersing them in the present; where joy and humor prevail alongside academic rigor; and where authentic relationships engage students with their teachers, one another, and the world around them.

With an operating budget of approximately $50M, Oakwood seeks a director of finance to oversee the finance department that includes three other dedicated professionals. The role requires hands-on management of the school’s day-to-day finance operations, as well as a strategic approach to long-term financial planning. As Oakwood enters a multiyear chapter of three separate capital campaigns that will trigger significant construction and development, the director of finance will also play a role in cash management, debt financing, and banking partnerships. The director of finance reports to the chief operations officer and interfaces with department heads across both campuses. Oakwood looks forward to welcoming the director of finance in spring 2025, to allow for a graceful hand-off with the outgoing director of finance, who will be retiring at the end of the ’24-’25 school year.

Live Oak is hiring for a lower school division director (LSDD) to start July 1, 2025.

Live Oak School, a K-8 independent school in the heart of urban San Francisco, believes that the best learning happens when students are actively engaged in the process — thinking deeply, exploring ideas, and trying on strategies for solving problems. The school’s approach to teaching and learning is deeply rooted in progressive tradition and informed by contemporary research. Live Oak anchors its instructional program around the students as individual learners, determined to prepare them for the opportunities that will define the lives of graduates in the twenty-first century.

This year, Live Oak transitioned to a new program leadership model to provide even greater support for day-to-day divisional management, while still allowing for continued progress on strategic program priorities. Both division directors (Lower School and Middle School) report to the head of divisions, who next year will become the associate head of school. Because this model was finalized only late in the spring earlier this calendar year, the school appointed one-year acting directors for both divisions from within the faculty for the 24-25 school year.

Now, open application calls for both permanent division directors are running concurrently this fall, in advance of the 25-26 year. The LSDD supervises, coaches, and evaluates all faculty in grades K-4, and oversees several areas of the lower school academic program, including: implementation for curricular and student strategies; communication and engagement with guardians; and student success and restorative practices. With a highly interconnected educational environment, Live Oak is excited to run both these searches at the same time— to identify mission-aligned divisional leaders eager to collaborate with each other and other members of the Program Leadership Team, which starting in 25-26 will be led by the associate head of school.

Mary McDowell Friends School (MMFS) is a K-12 college preparatory program dedicated to the success of students with learning disabilities. Grounded in the Quaker values of equality, integrity, and social responsibility, MMFS cultivates a diverse community where all students can reach their full potential. With three distinct campuses (Lower, Middle, Upper) within a one-mile radius of each other in the heart of Brooklyn, MMFS is an outstanding place to work, to learn, and to serve.

The chief technology officer (CTO) leads a mission-driven department of nine full-time professionals, in addition to seasonal and temporary workers. At MMFS, all areas of technology are overseen by the CTO, from tech integration and curriculum, to data and systems, to infrastructure and support. With no dedicated network administrator or outside MSP, the CTO at MMFS has to lead with a hands-on approach on the IT/IS side of the house. At the same time, each campus has a dedicated IT specialist and ed tech specialist to support day-to-day operational needs of that particular division, and the department has an assistant director of educational technology to manage the instructional tech program. The ideal candidate would have a breadth of technical knowledge, experience in a distributed and enterprise environment, unwavering commitment to DEI and anti-racism, and excitement for working at a school serving LD students. Although the role begins July 1, 2025, MMFS is hoping to complete the hiring process by early 2025 to allow for a smooth handoff from the current interim CTO, who is serving in a one-year capacity for the 24-25 year. The CTO reports directly to the head of school and is a member of the school leadership team.

In parallel, three Technology Integrators—one for each division—work with faculty and report up to the three Division Heads (Lower, Middle, and Upper). The Director of Technology liaises regularly with those Technology Integrators and other academic leaders and teaching professionals, so Chapin seeks someone with exceptional IT/IS skills and a forward-thinking vision, exceptional project management skills, and eagerness to work in an educational environment. Chapin is hoping to make a hiring decision by the end of 2024, and then will work with the next Director to determine a mutually agreeable start date in either the first or second quarter of 2025.
