Middle School Head Peter Kwiterovich ’87 announced the appointment of mathematics faculty member Shonique Alexander to the position of assistant head of the Middle School. She replaces Matt Buck ’93, who leaves Gilman at the end of this school year to become head of the Middle School at Calvert School. “I look forward to working with Shonique as she continues supporting students, faculty and parents in making the Middle School a wonderful place to learn and teach,” says Kwiterovich. Alexander brings varied classroom and administrative experiences to her new position. A seasoned middle grades teacher, Alexander taught at Northeast Middle School before joining the Gilman faculty at the start of the 2004-05 school year. She has also served as director of Gilman’s Middle Grades Partnership with New Song Academy. Alexander holds a bachelor’s degree from Loyola College and two master’s degrees from Goucher College, most recently earning her M.Ed. with a concentration in administration and supervision.
