Staff members come to Scattergood from a variety of different backgrounds and are enthusiastic about sharing their experiences and expertise with the community. We are joined through our commitment to this community. We work together to provide students with a supportive and encouraging environment in which to discover their passions, learn about community and responsibility, and pursue academic excellence. In doing so, staff find their own lives enriched as we too become part of the learning experience that goes on at Scattergood.
Working at Scattergood is a community experience, a vocation more than a job. Staff members rarely work a traditional 9 to 5 day, and find themselves actively involved in all aspects of community life, from Collection in the morning to talking with students in the dorm after study hall. With nearly all of the staff living on campus, Scattergood faculty members play a key role in helping shape the school community. Students often visit staff apartments or play pool with staff in the lounge. At the core of daily life at Scattergood is a strong sense of community.
