Head of School Search
With Dr. Ginger Hovenic’s planned July 2026 retirement from the Head of School position, the Sage Ridge Board of Trustees initiated a comprehensive search for the next permanent Head of Sage Ridge School. Together with our selected recruitment partner, IndySchool Consultancy, a well-established national and leadership search firm, we look forward to updating the community on the search efforts. Interested candidates and/or nominations are encouraged to submit a statement of interest and CV to IndySchool Consultancy at tim@indyschoolconsultancy.com.
