The Hockaday School Search Committee Chair Michelle Neuhoff Thomas reports, “”After a complete and exhaustive national search of outstanding candidates, we are elated to welcome Karen as our next head of school. She will bring vision, inspiration, and momentum to Hockaday while holding true to the traditions of its founding Four Cornerstones of Character, Courtesy, Scholarship, and Athletics. With a highly distinguished background in education, Karen is uniquely qualified to lead our School to ensure it continues to provide the exceptional opportunities that define the Hockaday experience. We are confident that her remarkable experience and leadership will guide Hockaday into this next chapter in its history.”

Karen has previously served as associate dean of students at the University of California at Berkley and in student affairs positions at George Washington University, the University of Vermont, and Hobart and William Smith Colleges.

She and her husband Andy and their black Lab, Brunson, will be moving to Dallas for Karen to officially take over her position on Saturday, July 1. Until then interim headmistress Liza Lee will stay at the helm.
