BIO - John Suitor began his independent school career...
at Foxcroft School, a boarding and day school for girls in Northern Virginia. During his 16 year tenure, he held a variety of different positions within the school, including history and math teacher, technology coordinator, athletic director, director of summer programs, chair of department of history and social sciences, and academic dean/dean of faculty. Following his time at Foxcroft, John served as head of school at Long Trail School, a 6-12 grade day school in southwestern Vermont. While there, he helped Long Trail become Vermont’s first International Baccalaureate (IB) world school. John believes very strongly in professional development and school improvement. To that end, he has served on state and regional independent school association boards or commissions in Virginia, Vermont, New England, and Colorado. A graduate of independent schools, John attended Hebron Academy in Maine. He lives in the Gunbarrel neighborhood of Boulder with his wife Gail and is the father of 3 daughters, Elizabeth, Madison, and Catherine.
Meet our Faculty and Staff
Meet our Board of Trustees
Boulder Country Day, like most independent schools, is governed by a self-selecting Board of Trustees comprised of current parents, past parents, alumni, and community leaders. The Board’s primary role is to hold our school’s mission in trust for future generations of BCD families. In that role, the Board, while working closely with the Head of School and the senior leadership team develops and reviews broad, long-range, institutional policy, ensures the school’s financial sustainability, plans strategically for the school’s future, and raises funds for annual and capital projects.
