DEEP DIVE: Affordability and Accessibility: A Conversation with Heather Hoerle and Jeff Shields

In the years prior to COVID-19, we explored the economic, demographic, and technological pressures disrupting long-held financial and enrollment practices at independent schools. Then, a global pandemic and an increased awareness of racial injustice revealed further pressures and fissures. To study this further and support K-12 independent schools, the Enrollment Management Association (EMA) and the National Business Officers Association (NBOA) have continued to partner to explore where we’ve been, what we’ve learned, and where we should go next. Join EMA’s Heather Hoerle and NBOA’s Jeff Shields as they spotlight innovations underway to address these challenges and ensure the long-term viability of independent schools.
