She succeeds Jill Lundquist, who retired on June 30 after 13 years as the director of admissions. Jill was honored for her dedicated service to the school at a special end-of-year luncheon.
Josie said, “The depth and breadth of Carol’s expertise in education, design, training and business serve as an exceptionally rich background for her work at PDS. Since 2002, she has been closely involved in the life of the school as a parent, volunteer and trustee, and with her children entering first and seventh grades in the fall, she truly understands how PDS connects joy to learning. I am excited to work with her as we continue to build and shape the school for the future.”
Carol is a magna cum laude graduate of the State University of New York, Albany, with a B.A. in English and Education. She received an M.S. in Technical Communications, summa cum laude, from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and holds an Advanced Certificate in Interactive Media Development from Rochester Institute of Technology and a Master’s Certificate in Project Management from The George Washington University, School of Business & Public Management. A former high school and college English teacher, Carol spent 25 years with IBM in such positions as program manager, lead designer and developer for global new hire orientation; multimedia designer and developer for large systems; education customer representative and planner; software designer and tester; and information developer for user and programmer guides. In addition to her volunteer service at Poughkeepsie Day School, she has sat on the boards of the YWCA and led educational programs at EXITE Camp for Girls ProjectView Minority Recruiting as well as coached AYSO soccer and Little League softball. | | back | |
