Job description

Description:

About Fractal Education Fractal Education Group builds and operates distinctive early education schools designed to inspire children, families, and communities. Through our Destination Schools, we evolve independent-branded schools into experiential learning destinationsโ€”places families seek out for their values, environments, and programs, not just proximity, to become the localโ€™s favorites and leaders in their respective submarkets.

The Head of School directly manages the Program Coordinator and Department Heads, while closely partnering with the Area Director to shape the schoolโ€™s future.
