The Country School Celebrates 90 Years and Installs Jay Parker

The Country School is proud to be celebrating its 90th school year. This milestone year also marks the beginning of a new chapter with the appointment of Jay Parker as the 7th Head of School.

 
The School kicked off its 90th anniversary celebration on Friday, October 4 with the official installation of Mr. Parker and two surprise guests at morning handshakes. It has been a long-standing tradition at The Country School that each student starts the day shaking hands with the Head of School under the bell tower. That morning, students shook three hands on their way into school–Mr. Parker was joined by 30-year Head of School Neil Mufson, along with 2021-2024 Interim Head of School Jean Brune. In an all-school assembly, alumni, friends, and students joined the three Heads of School to share cherished memories and excitement for the future in keeping with the school’s 90th Anniversary theme, Tradition Meets Tomorrow. 

The school community looks forward to celebrating the past while charting an exciting path forward under Parker’s leadership.
