Nancy Kauffman - Castilleja's New Head of School

Kauffman_Nanci-crop.jpgFormer Bridge site director Nanci Kauffman was recently installed as Castilleja's sixth Head of School.   The ceremony featured a keynote address by author Catherine Steiner-Adair, author of Full of Ourselves:  A Wellness Program Advancing Girl Power, Health and Leadership,   who told students that they were in "the right place at the right time - Ms. Kauffman is one of the country's most exciting, creative and inspiring educators - unwavering in her commitment to educating girls to lead."  Nanci has been involved with Peninsula Bridge since 2001 when she ran the Teacher Collaboration program and then the Tech Girl's program for 2 years at Castilleja.  Currently Nanci is serving as the School Head  representative on our Board of Directors.  We congratulate Nanci in her new position at Castilleja and look forward to her insight and expertise as we continue to grow our program to include more independent school partners and most importantly more students.
