EMPLOYEE WELLBEING
QUERY
What are the structures needed to support employee growth and wellness? What are creative ways to attract and retain a diverse faculty and staff?
ACTION
Each working group was composed of Shady Hill School faculty and staff who met monthly between October 2023 and May 2024 to explore the key questions within each priority area, and establish a plan for moving forward.
OUTCOME
We expanded wellness initiatives through employee-led events. Katherine Hesko, TTC ’08, now serves as Dean of Faculty, advocating for faculty needs and leading an enhanced onboarding program for new employees.
STRATEGIC PLAN WORKING GROUPS
Seven working groups have been formed to study these priority areas and to create a roadmap for Shady Hill. Each group is composed of faculty, staff and administration. The groups are:
