Job Front

Good News! Irene was just offered a position at Deerfield, which is about two hours away from the city in South Deerfield, Mass. Deerfield Academy is one of the upper echelon of boarding schools, or so I'm told. The school's endowment is $375 million, which comes out to over $630,000 for each of the 600 students currently attending. There are 110 faculty, making for a teacher to student ratio of about 5:1.

Here are some pictures:





The sprawling campus stretches over 280 acres and includes 127 buildings.

Of course nothing is set in stone, but given its prestigious nature and relative proximity to Somerville, and so to me, Deerfield has the edge over most of her other possibilities--including St. Paul's School for Girls (although she did like the school a great deal).

As for me, I find my mind constantly wandering back to the Peace Corp...



April Fools. I'm looking for temp jobs, I'm looking for temp jobs.
