A Message from the Head of School Transition Committee

Weekly transition meetings are held between the 9th Head of School, Aaron Schubach, and the incoming 10th Head of School, Tambi Tyler.

"Is there anyone that does not need to navigate uncertainty and risk on a regular basis? To be alive is to be vulnerable; to be a leader is to be vulnerable every minute of the day. You don't get to opt out!"

-Brené Brown, Daring Leadership

Dear CSS Community,

As we make our way to the end of a school year marked by change, we wanted to introduce you to the efforts of the Head of School Transition Team. As chair, and together with my fellow committee members, we will work to ensure a strong Head of School transition.

Our first efforts are to wish Aaron Schubach a fond farewell and offer an enthusiastic welcome to Tambi Tyler. Aaron Schubach concludes his leadership tenure on June 12, 2020, and Tambi Tyler begins as the school's 10th Head of School on July 1, 2020.

While celebrations during safer-at-home restrictions preclude us from a large gathering to see off the Schubach family, we'd like to invite you to campus on Tuesday, May 26, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. for a drive-by honoring of Mr. Schubach's leadership and to offer best wishes to his family. More details to follow.
