Bancroft School hires a new head of school

The Bancroft School in Worcester announced on Thursday the appointment of Stephanie Luebbers as the private organization’s new head of school, making her the 14th person to hold the position.

The school’s board of trustees voted to endorse the school’s search committee’s recommendation of Luebbers. She will start at Bancroft during the school’s next school year cycle on July 1. 

The school has been searching for a new head since November 2021, when the board decided to part ways with James "Trey" Cassidy, who held the job since 2014. Cassidy left at the end of the school year, and his LinkedIn profile doesn’t show he has started at a new organization.

Tim Saburn has been the school’s interim head of school since July 1 while the search committee worked to find a permanent replacement for Cassidy. 

Luebbers arrives at Bancroft from Stoneleigh-Burnham School in Greenfield, where she’s been the head of school for five years. Before that, she spent 11 years as the head of upper school at Cincinnati Country Day School in Ohio. She also worked at the Albany Academy for Girls, where she was an English faculty member as well as the academic dean and eventually the associate head of school. She taught English, coached sports, and was a dorm parent before that at Mountain Academy in Vermont, Kimball Union Academy in New Hampshire, and Pingry School in New Jersey.
