Message from the Head of School
Alan Sparrow has been Head of School at Rowland Hall since 1992. He came to Rowland Hall after eight years as the Upper School Principal at Seven Hills School in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was a Middle School Principal in Rochester, New York for four years and prior to that, spent eight years in the classroom teaching fifth through twelfth grades. Alan holds a B.A. in Psychology from Brown University, a M.A. in History and a M.S. in Educational Administration from the University of Rochester.
Rowland Hall is a special place that attracted me to move to Salt Lake City in 1992. I was thrilled to become head of school at that time because I was so impressed with what I thought the program would do for my own children. Both have long since graduated from Rowland Hall after experiencing its extraordinary educational program, caring and supportive teachers, and service and athletic opportunities outside the classroom.
If you are considering becoming a part of our vibrant educational community I hope you find a lot of helpful information about our program and curriculum and the admission process. If you are already formally connected to our school, I hope you find our site user-friendly and helpful as well. And, please remember, you are always welcome to contact us directly at school for additional information.
Sincerely,
