Our Faculty and Staff Speak
"It sounds cliché, but community is everything. Community is what keeps you here. You wake up and you come because you like the people you work with."
"I have never been at a school with as strong a community as we have here at SSFS. After being hired, I felt like I was "the new guy" for about six hours before I found my people. We look out for one another, and we make sure that the people around us have what they need to be successful. Whether students, families, faculty and staff, or anyone else associated with the School, the people I see every day make sure I know I belong and keep me coming back."
"I love this place so much that after I found it for my kids, I got a job here. Everything about this place encompasses the value of love…for what we do, where we are, and who we’re doing it for."
"SSFS has had a profound impact on my personal and professional life. I can’t imagine working anywhere else."
"I’ve been here since 1999, and I’m still here because of the community—the people I work with, the children, the families. SSFS feels like home to me; we take care of each other and support each other. The friendships I’ve made here are enduring—it’s both a fun and supportive place to work."
"At SSFS, I’ve found something truly unique: people are fully invested—deeply committed to our mission and to one another. Being a Springer means approaching our work with passion, purpose, and a genuine desire to build unity within our community. It’s not just a job."
"I went to a Quaker boarding school and therefore had a lived experience with Quakerism as a student, but I thought that might be the end for me. Now I help organize Quaker-led activities on campus, and students see me as someone who helps them experience spiritual connectedness at the School. The value of unintentionally becoming a steward of Quaker life here at the School has grown to really mean a lot to me."
