Head of School

Wilmington Christian School (WCS) is a Christ-centered, college-preparatory school serving students from early learning through grade 12 on a beautiful 15+ acre campus in Hockessin, Delaware. Founded in 1946, WCS provides a distinctively Christian, innovative education that effectively develops Godly influencers who are well prepared for life after high school and who impact the culture for Christ. Building on the foundation of Scriptural truth, WCS teaches students to grow in Christian character, to excel in academic proficiency, and to foster mentoring relationships. To carry out this religious mission, Wilmington Christian School employs like-minded people who, through their speech, conduct, and ministry to students, will further our religious purpose and beliefs.

Wilmington Christian School is seeking its next Head of School to begin as early as July 2026. Reporting to the Board of Directors, the incoming Head of School will enjoy working with a team that is highly motivated to pursue the mission-aligned initiatives that have been implemented in the last 5+ years.
