President, Catholic Academy of Sussex County

“Our Legacy – Their Future.”  The Catholic Academy of Sussex County, nestled in the beautiful hills, lakes, and countryside of northern New Jersey, is seeking a dynamic and energetic President to embrace and continue the tradition of excellence that began in 1956.

The CASC has a population of 1,325 students in grades Pre-K through 12^th grade in three separate buildings on one beautiful 76-acre campus located in Sparta, New Jersey. Rev. George A. Brown School is home to Pre-K through 4^th grade; Pope John XXIII Middle School is home to grades 5 through 7; and Pope John XXIII High School is home to grades 8 through 12. Each school has its own principal and all three work and lead collaboratively to promote one unified Academy under the direction of the President.

The CASC also has a deeply committed, seasoned, and enthusiastic faculty which looks to the president for innovative, creative, and motivational leadership. The CASC has recently been granted permission from the Diocese of Paterson to embark on a $10 million capital campaign to fund a state-of-the-art Science, Technology, and Performing Arts Center. The new president will be instrumental in securing the funding needed and in developing the STEM and performing arts programs.

The successful candidate must be a practicing Catholic and have a proven track record of academic excellence and educational leadership. The candidate must be a motivated leader with a vision for the future, embracing the latest innovation, technology, and educational strategies. The new leader must be a physical presence – visible and available to the students, families, alumni, and community. He/She must be eager to engage with the Academy’s many sending parishes and willing to work alongside the CASC Board of Trustees and Endowment.

Interested candidates should apply by 11/12/21. Application material can be found at: www.patdioschools.org/administrative-openings.
