Founded in 1950 by the Sisters of Mercy, the school has educated thousands of young men and women from Philadelphia neighborhoods and the surrounding suburbs. Mercy Career & Technical High School offers the finest career and technical education and training in an environment that promotes spiritual values, moral development, and service to others.

 

Conceived initially as Mercy Technical School, the school moved in 1972 from its original location at the corner of Broad Street and Columbia Avenue to its present location at 2900 West Hunting Park Avenue and serves over 300 co-ed students.

Earlier this school year, current President, Sr. Rosemary Herron, announced she would be stepping down as Mercy Tech's longtime leader. Sr. Rosemary served the school community for over 25 years, first as Principal and then as the first President. Under her guidance, this unique Catholic school community has continued to flourish, fulfilling its mission of graduating competent, compassionate, and contributing members of the global community. Because of Sr. Rosemary's leadership and the support of passionate and engaged business partners, Mercy Tech is well-positioned for an exciting and promising future.

The President is accountable to the school’s governing bodies, the Mercy Education System of the Americas, and the local Board of Trustees.

 

The ideal candidate will be able to articulate a direction and priorities for the school through the implementation of its strategic plan and have experience in utilizing business opportunities within professional, trade, and other community organizations. As a visible presence within and outside the school community, the President must be able to advance the marketing and advancement initiatives of the school.  Ideally, the successful candidate will have significant executive leadership experience, the ability to articulate Mercy Tech's value proposition, and demonstrated ability in acquiring funds through soliciting major gifts, planned gifts, and capital campaign contributions. Candidates should possess exemplary communication and relationship-building skills that inspire confidence and collaboration.

 

Finally, the new President should have a passion for advancing the mission of Catholic education, particularly the career and technical education of young men and women in the Sisters of Mercy tradition, possess an understanding of the President/Principal model of administration, and be comfortable working with a committed Board of Trustees, the Sisters of Mercy, and Mercy Education.

As the oldest all-boys school in Washington, DC, Gonzaga College High School has been helping young men realize their potential since opening its doors in 1821. The school is part of a proven Ignatian educational model that traces its roots back to 1540 when St. Ignatius founded the Jesuit order. As a Jesuit school, Gonzaga encourages its students to see God in all things and to do everything for the greater glory, or as they say on campus “AMDG!” (Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam).

 

Situated in the shadow of our nation’s Capitol Building, Gonzaga also competes in arguably the most competitive athletic league for high school sports in our country.  For over 20 years as Director of Athletics, a proud and dedicated Gonzaga alumnus Joe Reyda ’85 helped to shape the sports program at his alma mater and shepherd many coaches and scholar-athletics to great heights.  Unexpectedly, Mr. Reyda died this past summer and Assistant Head for Student Life, Mr. Jim Kilroy, is serving as Interim Director of Athletics as the school launches a nationwide search for the position.

 

For a position that will begin in July 2024 or sooner, Gonzaga seeks its next leader of a robust and highly regarded athletics department—one who is responsible for the supervision of athletic department personnel including three assistant directors, a vibrant interscholastic athletic program with almost 50 teams across 18 sports, and the associated on-campus sports facilities and facility partners in the Washington, DC area.  Most importantly, the next Director of Athletics will support Gonzaga’s student-athletes and ensure that the athletic programs complement the overall mission of the school and reflect Gonzaga’s values as a Jesuit institution.  The position will report to the Assistant Head for Student Life.

 

The search committee is on a fast-track to identify and secure the next Director of Athletics.  While the position description and detailed search prospectus are being prepared, interested candidates can begin exploring this exciting leadership opportunity by immediately contacting Kyle Pietrantonio at kpietrantonio@partnersinmission.com for more information.  

 

To apply, please submit the following documents, confidentially, and as separate PDF attachments. Please include “Gonzaga College High School - Director of Athletics” in the subject field.

• Letter of interest
• Current resume with all appropriate dates included
• Statement of philosophy on your approach to leading athletics at a Jesuit college preparatory institution
• List of five professional references with names and working relationships, phone numbers, and email addresses (No references will be contacted without your knowledge and approval.)
   

Founded in 1854 in Havana, Cuba, Belen Jesuit Preparatory School moved to Miami, Florida in 1961 upon Fidel Castro’s expulsion of the Jesuits from the country.  Since 1981, Belen has been located on a stunning, 33-acre campus in western Miami-Dade county.  The school has served all boys since its founding and currently boasts over 7200 active alumni around the world.  Today, Belen serves boys in grades 6 through 12 with a student enrollment exceeding 1300.

 

Belen has had numerous capital projects since moving to its current location.  The most recent one is a breathtaking, $12 million chapel which seats over 700.  This particular project is a testament to the strong faith emphasis the school has and will continue to prioritize in the next chapter of Belen’s history.  The school has been listed on the Cardinal Newman Society’s list of honor roll schools for its stellar reputation on formation and Catholic culture. 

 

To this end, the school has recently launched a nationwide, year-long search for its next Dean of Mission and Formation.  Under the President’s and Principal’s leadership, the campus ministry office has grown to a team of seven members for whom this next Dean will lead as the school seeks to strengthen and expand its ministerial reach to all domains of school life.  The primary responsibility of the new Dean of Mission and Formation will be to implement   the vision and mission of ministry in the Ignatian tradition through a collaborative Christ-centered faith community that will assist its students in becoming “Intentional Disciples for Christ” as “Men for Others”.  The Dean reports to the Principal.

Founded in 1876 by the Sisters of Mercy, Mount de Sales Academy is the only Catholic, independent, college preparatory school in middle Georgia.  Since 2004, Mount de Sales Academy has served students beginning in grade 6 through grade 12.  Today, the school enrolls over 500 students with remarkably diverse backgrounds, including 63% non-Catholic families and 45% students of color.

 

Since the original convent and school buildings were demolished in the 1970s, Mount de Sales has had numerous capital projects to expand its campus.  Fifteen years ago, a new 77-acre athletic campus opened and, in 2015, the school invested over $1 million in building enhancements to align with redevelopment changes in Macon's College Hill Corridor, a two-square mile area between Mercer University and the downtown business district.

 

The current President, David Held, will be retiring next summer after an extraordinary 14-year tenure.  To this end, the school has recently launched a nationwide search for its next school leader.  The next President will have the greatest responsibility for the overall management of the school, and most importantly, will serve as the spiritual leader of the community.  The President is the sole employee of a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees.

With an experienced new Board chair, a prioritization of best-in-class school governance, and the appointment of seasoned school leader Karl Ertle for a one-year interim post, John Paul II is well-positioned as it seeks a long-term President.

 

The school operates in the President and Principal model and seeks an entrepreneurial president with exceptional poise, presence, and communications skills. To qualify, you will need to be a practicing Catholic, accomplished servant-leader with a portfolio of leadership success, and experience working with a high-level fiduciary Board. 

 

The President serves as the chief executive officer of the school and is responsible for the operational vitality for the school, including advancement, enrollment, marketing, finances, and capital projects.

The President also bears ultimate responsibility for the school’s Catholic identity and is supported by a robust senior leadership team in carrying out these responsibilities.

 

The Board welcomes candidates from other Catholic, charter, or independent schools as well as accomplished executives from various mission-critical career venues such as higher education; non-profit foundations, associations, charities and the like; or, the corporate, civic, and professional services arenas. While knowledge of education and school operations is preferred, other qualities and experiences are also valued, especially visionary, entrepreneurial leadership and the ability to inspire, lead a high-performing team, and create demand for the extraordinary gifts of a John Paul II education.
