On April 30, the Holderness community gathered for the annual Leadership Chapel, where it met its new class of Senior Leaders for the 2024-25 school year. Those leaders will run key aspects of the school as president and vice president, dining hall supervisors, dorm leaders, and Job Program leaders.
For more than 70 years, Holderness students have chosen their school leaders in a unique process free of speeches or campaigning, where rising seniors are assessed on the qualities of fairness, initiative, dependability, and empathy.
Outgoing School President George Fortin ’24 said it's up to the school's leaders to set the tone for the year ahead. "Every activity, every school gathering, every assembly, event, game, concert will be what you make of it," Fortin said. "The enjoyment the rest of the school has is directly impacted by the tone you all set when you arrive at whatever that event may be. SET THE TONE!"
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 school leadership!
