I’m excited to re-release this episode with Kevin Folan, Head of School at Providence Country Day School, where we dive into their successful tuition reset and the innovative strategies that have transformed their school.
This topic is more timely than ever—just last week, an article I co-authored with Kevin, Rethinking Tuition Resets for Sustainability, was published in Independent School Magazine.
It explores the essential questions schools should ask before considering a tuition reset: https://www.nais.org/magazine/independent-school/winter-2025/rethinking-tuition-resets-for-sustainability/.
In this episode, Kevin shares how PCD doubled its enrollment in just four years through bold, creative approaches. From a tuition reset to launching a global online academy to acquiring an elementary school, Kevin’s team is reimagining what independent school education can look like—all while staying true to their mission.
This conversation is packed with insights for any leader curious about rethinking their school’s business model. I hope you enjoy it!
