The Board of Trustees announced a historic leadership transition on Tuesday, naming Eric Zinterhofer ’89, P’18, ’19 as its next president and Christopher Auguste ’76, P’09, ’12 as its first-ever vice president, both elected unanimously.
The creation of the vice presidency, according to current Board President Amy Falls ’82, P’19, ’21 in the press release, “was envisioned in the board’s recent governance review and which recognizes the increasing complexity and scope of the Academy and its role in global education.”
Zinterhofer, a charter trustee since 2016 and currently serving as Chair of the Head of School Search Committee, will assume the presidency on July 1. He will succeed Falls, who has led the Board since 2019 as its first female president.
Auguste has been a charter trustee since 2019. He has served on the board of the Institute for Recruitment of Teachers and was a member of Andover’s 2014 Strategic Planning Task Force, among other advisory roles.
Zinterhofer declined to comment, citing that he will not officially begin his role until the summer. Falls and Auguste could not be reached for comment before deadline.
