    Dear Parents,

    The Board of Directors is very pleased to inform you that we elected new leadership during our January

    17, 2012 meeting.

    The Board elected Plack Carr to serve as Chairperson-Elect and Ken Schnitzer to serve as Vice

    Chairperson-Elect. The new Chairperson-Elect and Vice Chairperson-Elect will prepare to assume their

    official roles beginning June 2012. These newly elected leaders are genuinely devoted to the mission of the

    Episcopal School of Dallas and are excited to lead the school during such an important time in our history.

    I look forward to working with Plack and Ken to transition leadership duties and key initiatives andprograms over the next several months.

    Our Chairperson-Elect, Plack Carr, has a deep commitment and devotion to the Episcopal School of

    Dallas. He has grandchildren in the 6th and 8th grade at our school. Plack is a distinguished and

    accomplished member of our community whose extensive background includes years of volunteer

    positions with local and statewide foundations and boards. He currently serves as the Executive Vice

    President of the Southwestern Medical Foundation. The Board looks forward to the direction and guidance

    from such a humble and capable leader.

    We are equally as excited to have Ken Schnitzer serve as our Vice Chairperson-Elect. Ken has a daughter

    in 7th grade at the Episcopal School of Dallas and serves on several Board committees. He is a notable

    member of the Dallas business community and supports numerous charitable organizations. Ken also

    serves on the Board of the AT&T Performing Arts Center and the Baylor Health Care System Foundation.

    The Board is also pleased to share we have selected Nancy Perot Mulford and Cullum Clark to serve as

    Co-Chairs of the Search Committee for our next Head of School. As this formal process begins

    immediately, Nancy and Cullum will continue to keep you informed and look forward to your involvement

    and input.

    Nancy has an enduring commitment to the school having previously served on the Board committee that

    drafted the mission statement for our school. She has a son in the 5th grade and three older boys who

    attended ESD as well. Nancy has also served on the search committees for Vanderbilts Chancellor and

    Hockadays Head of School. Cullum serves on various Board committees and has three children at the

    Episcopal School of Dallas in 3rd, 7th and 9th grade. Most recently, Cullum led a task force that developed

    the strategic long-term plan to advance the mission of our school well into the future.

    We would like to extend our gratitude to Laura Boeckman and her committee for managing the nominating

    process. We have a remarkable group of individuals whose talents and dedication will advance the mission

    and vision of the Episcopal School of Dallas into the Post Founding Era.

    Thank you for your support of our new leadership and the Episcopal School of Dallas.

    Sincerely,

    John Eagle

    Chairman
