Congratulations to Geoff Bennett ’83!
Deerfield Associates is very pleased to share the following announcement made this week by Charley Stillwell, Head of School, Episcopal High School, located in Alexandria, Virginia. “It is a pleasure to let everyone know that our search process to find our next Chief Financial Officer has been successfully completed. It is a tall order to find a wonderful individual ready to step into Boota deButt’s big shoes, but I am excited to announce that Geoffrey Bennett, the current CFO at Ransom Everglades School in Miami, has agreed to join our community during this coming summer. Geoff is especially excited to join our 100% residential boarding community having been a student at Deerfield Academy himself and a parent of four boarding school attendees.” Doug Cooney, principal of the Deerfield Associates, added, “It was a sincere pleasure working with Charley and the Episcopal High School community for the first time and on such an important search. EHS is our 158th client in the education sector. Everyone in ABOPS knows and has great respect for Boota. I have personally known Geoff for a decade and waited for the right opportunity to encourage Geoff to explore and ultimately match up with this high-profile position, which matches up nicely with his many talents and excellent work experiences. We wish Geoff, and his family, all the best in joining the Episcopal High School community”. – John Knight ’83
