Noni Thomas López to step down in June 2025
Gordon's Board will begin the search for a new head immediately
This week, Noni Thomas López announced her intention to step down from her position as Gordon's Head of School at the end of the 2024-2025 school year to become head at Poly Prep Country Day, a distinguished nursery to twelfth grade school in Brooklyn, New York.
As Board Chair Damian Ewens explained in a letter to the Gordon community, Dr. Thomas López leaves Gordon in a place of tremendous strength, and the Board will begin the search for the next Head of School immediately.
Damian’s letter, and a letter from Noni, are both at www.gordonschool.org/headsearch. Updates on the search for Gordon’s next Head of School will be posted there as they are available.
