Episode 28
Wednesday, 4 December, 2019
In this special episode of Roots and Wings: Voices of Independent Schools, we are delighted to feature Donna Orem, President of the National Association of Independent Schools. The National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) is a nonprofit membership association that provides services to more than 1,800 schools and associations of schools in the United States and abroad, including more than 1,500 independent private K-12 schools in the U.S. Prior to joining NAIS, she was the vice president for products and services development at the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE). In her fifteen years at CASE, she also served as the vice president for independent schools. In that role, she managed all services for the independent school advancement community, including the annual CASE/NAIS Conference. Ms. Orem speaks frequently about leadership, governance, trends in independent school education and workforce development. In this episode, Ms. Orem reflects upon what brings her great optimism about the future of independent schools. She shares ways in which independent schools are reimagining themselves and speaks to the notion of a third educational revolution in which we find ourselves. Ms. Orem's insights are important for listeners who are parents as well as practitioners in the independent school world. http://www.ljcds.org
