Lynne Macziewski is the new head of all-girls The Baldwin School in Bryn Mawr, and she brings with her over 20 years of experience in private education, writes Lisa Dukart for the Philadelphia Business Journal.

Before joining Baldwin, she was the associate head of school at Girls Preparatory in Tennessee and before that, she was both a teacher and an administrator at the Blake School in Minneapolis.

She discussed her new role and the future of the school with the Philadelphia Business Journal. Here are some of the highlights from that interview.

On why she chose Baldwin, she said, “The faculty here are brilliant and they love what they do, and they love our school. I have been blown away by their intellectual ability, their care for this school, their care for each other and for the girls…It’s the people inside of [the school] and the good work that we do to raise tomorrow’s female leaders. That is what makes the school so special.”

On the future of the school, she said, “We’re doing a lot of asking from our families about what they’re looking for and what they think the future of Baldwin holds. And for our girls, what are they looking for, as well. This is really a year of making connections, of listening, of learning and then we will use that information to really start working with a variety of community constituents in terms of our next strategic plan.”
