Quadros will take the helm at a pivotal moment for the 122-year-old school as it begins a partnership with PCD to create a new PreK through grade 12 education opportunity.

In a school that places high value on preparing students for lives of engaged citizenship, it comes as no surprise that a comprehensive and thoughtful civics education is a crucial part of the curriculum. In PCD's Middle School, the entire seventh grade history curriculum is devoted to the study of civics.

The new, independent Henry Barnard School (HBS) and Providence Country Day School will join together to offer an extraordinary opportunity for education in Rhode Island.
