Are you passionate about teaching? Many independent schools actively recruit MAs and PhDs with expertise in a particular subject matter and who enjoy teaching younger students.

Join us to hear from three teachers who have made their careers at these schools. They’ll provide you with:

  • An overview of independent schools in the NYC region
  • Details about how their own career paths
  • Information about Faculty Diversity Search (FDS), a program that recruits teachers and administrators of color and other under-represented minorities for 30 independent schools

Our speakers:

  • Pat Ranard is a lead recruiter with FDS. She has experience both as an English teacher and as a member of a hiring committee: as academic dean at an independent school, she hired quite a few PhD’s.
  • Betty Noel teaches biology at the Browning School. She holds a PhD from Stony Brook University.
  • Denise Philpotts teaches biology at The Trinity School, and was formerly head of the upper school at Spence and the head of the science department at Trinity. She has an MA from the New School.
  • Celines Pimentel teaches in the Spanish Department at The Spence School.

All are welcome to attend.
