The Board of Trustees is proud to announce that Juna Kim McDaid has been named our next Head of School, effective July 2023
After a thorough and thoughtful search, the Board of Trustees and Search Committee are proud to announce that Juna Kim McDaid will join The San Francisco School as its fourth Head of School, beginning July 2023. Thank you to all the students, families, staff, and extended community members for your participation in this process.
We believe that Juna will be a strong steward of our values and an excellent leader as we embark upon the next stage of our history. She has proven depth in K-12 academic pedagogy, DEIJ programs, and staff development. Juna has been a collaborative, transparent, and systems-oriented administrator and leader with high EQ and strong communications skills. These skills were apparent when she visited campus, and they were reinforced by her references who confirmed her integrity, close connection to faculty and staff, and learner’s disposition. She brings intentional and empathetic leadership, transparency, a strong work ethic, positive energy, and a commitment to ensuring that students remain at the center of everything we do. Most importantly, we see strong mission alignment and the continued growth of SFS with Juna as the Head.
