Bishop Fenwick High School PRESIDENTIAL SEARCH COMMITTEE
January 2, 2026 Dear Members of the Fenwick and St. Mary of the Annunciation Communities, Happy New Year to you all. We hope this message finds you and your families well and that you enjoyed a joyful and restful Christmas and holiday season. As we begin the new year, we would like to share an update on the presidential search for Bishop Fenwick High School and St. Mary of the Annunciation School. Over the past several months, the Search Committee has been working closely with Carney Sandoe & Associates to identify and review a strong pool of candidates from across the country. We are pleased to report that we have seen an exceptional level of interest in this opportunity and have been extremely impressed by both the depth and caliber of the candidates who expressed interest in leading our schools. During the Christmas break, and after reviewing a pool of applicants, the Committee conducted in-depth interviews with candidates we identified as semifinalists. Following these conversations, the Committee met to thoughtfully reflect, discuss, and further narrow the field. We are now preparing to invite several finalists for on-campus visits. Each finalist's visit will take place toward the end of January or the first week of February. The visits will provide finalists with a comprehensive opportunity to engage with the Fenwick and St. Mary’s communities, experience both campuses, and meet with key stakeholders. Once the specific dates are confirmed, we will share additional details regarding schedules, agendas, and opportunities for community interaction. Thank you for your continued prayers, support, and engagement throughout this important process. We remain grateful for the trust you place in the Search Committee and are encouraged by the strength of the candidates who are eager to serve our schools and advance their missions. With warm regards and best wishes for a healthy and happy New Year, Jay Juffre Chair, Presidential Search Committee Bishop Fenwick High School & St. Mary of the Annunciation School
