Since 1903, Ransom Everglades has been known for developing well-rounded students who are service-oriented leaders and who embrace a dynamic and challenging educational curriculum.

RE has a diverse and engaged student body, talented and committed faculty, and an incredible location on Biscayne Bay. RE has enjoyed effective leadership and governance, enabling it to thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape with steady enrollment numbers, a strong financial position, and an exceptional reputation.
At Ransom Everglades, all students have meaningful opportunities to grow and succeed along whatever paths they choose. The next Head will celebrate the School’s 120th year of rich history and tradition while helping shape a future of growth and innovation. The successful candidate will have a proven track record of complex institutional leadership, including sound fiscal management, fundraising acumen, and administrative success, a passion for working with students and families, and a deeply held connection and commitment to RE’s mission, heritage, and culture. The Head will be a visible presence on campus, known to faculty, staff, students, and families, building upon the strong sense of shared commitment to the development of RE students. RE seeks a leader who is strongly attracted by the School’s educational mission, ambitious goals, and its location in the dynamic city of Miami.
