The Park School of Baltimore Selects Connor Associates

 

Connor Associates is pleased to announce its future work with The Park School of Baltimore on a comprehensive project that will provide research and advisory to launch Park to its next level of success. We are delighted to work with such an impressive team and School and look forward to the work ahead.

Connor Associates was able to hear and interpret Park’s needs and priorities. They were able to understand and dig down and read between the lines in terms of what we needed and wanted. I appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into the proposal and that they put the items that were important to us front and center.

I felt confident in our conversations and in the proposal that they would be able to deliver on the things they proposed — and I got the same message from past Connor clients when we did reference checks.
— Mennette DuBos San-Lee, Director of Enrollment Management and Tuition Assistance

Founded in 1912, Park School is a non-sectarian, independent, gender-inclusive day school for children in pre-kindergarten through grade twelve. Daniel J.
