Head of School Search
The Meadows School announced in January 2022 that Head of School Jeremy Gregeresen would be moving on to pursue other opportunities and that the Board of Trustees was beginning a search for the next great Head of School. TMS partnered with an industry-leading search firm to fill this important position and has announced the new Head, Dr. Jay Berckley. The school’s new leader will be onboarded during the second half of the 2022-23 school year as a lead in to this exciting next phase of TMS.
