SAVANNAH, Ga. - GeorgiaChron -- Bethesda Academy, founded in 1740 as a child-care institution and now an independent day school for boys in grades six through twelve, announces the appointment of Dr. Christian Proctor as interim President for a two-year term beginning Monday, July 1.
Dr. Proctor brings with him 25 years of experience as a headmaster, with a robust history of leadership in independent schools across the Southeast. Recently, he concluded a tenure as Head of School at Chatham Hall, a 125-student leadership academy in Virginia, where he oversaw the construction of an athletic and wellness center and launched a partnership with a local college to develop a leadership program. Prior to that, Dr. Proctor headed North Cross School in Roanoke, VA, for 11 years. His leadership experience extends to schools in South Carolina and Louisiana.
With a commitment to George Whitefield's vision of imparting "A Love of God, Love of Learning, and a Strong Work Ethic," Dr. Proctor emphasizes the importance of providing a rigorous academic program that challenges students and prepares them for college and beyond. "When I first learned about the opportunity at Bethesda Academy, I felt an immediate connection to its mission and values," said Dr. Proctor. "I am eager to lead the next chapter of this esteemed institution and work with our community to achieve excellence."
