Episode Synopsis
“We are united in elevating women’s leadership worldwide by educating and empowering our students to be ethical, globally minded changemakers.” —International Coalition of Girls' Schools Vision
Global programming is a significant focus of girls’ schools. Our schools play a critical role in empowering girls with the tools and an informed perspective to become influential contributors to, and leaders of, our complex and ever-changing world. Today’s girls have had the unique opportunity to witness global changemaking happening in real time on an unparalleled scale. At no other time has there been among girls and young women such a deep sense of shared identity, potential, and power.
There is no doubt: the time for girls—and for girls’ schools around the world—is now.
In this episode of PEP Talks, we focus our lens on ICGS and how the organization reflects back on its schools what is happening across the world: a rapidly rising global awareness about the collective power of women’s voices and leadership. Host Olivia Haas, Director of Strategic Communications & Media at NCGS, talks to several members of the NCGS Board of Trustees:
● Paul Burke, Head of The Nightingale-Bamford School and President of the NCGS Board
● Danielle Heard, Head of Nashoba Brooks School and Vice President of the NCGS Board
● Yanni Hill-Gill, Head of Atlanta Girls’ School
● Elizabeth “Liz” McGregor, Head of Westridge School
● Liz Schmitt, Chief Enrollment & Student Affairs Officer at Miss Porter’s School
● Megan Murphy, Executive Director of National Coalition of Girls' Schools (NCGS)
Gain a clear picture of the NCGS vision and principles, and what those mean for girls’ schools and girls across the globe.
