Meet the Advancement Team

Heather White

Heather White

Director of Advancement

As a long-time Pace parent (a son '29 and twin daughters '22) and a member of the Pace staff since 2011, I see what makes our school special every day. There are so many aspects, but what always comes to mind first is Pace’s people: our teachers who love and inspire our kids; our staff members who work together to create this nurturing environment; our amazing students; and last but certainly not least, our incredible parents, grandparents, alumni and their parents, neighbors and friends that make up the rest of our Pace family.

I witness untold generosity from every one of these groups daily. Our Pace family gives tirelessly of its time, talent and treasure. It is because of this generosity that Pace is remarkable in so many ways—and will continue to be—growing and improving to meet the current and future needs of our 21st-century students.

The Advancement team is responsible for educating our community about the many opportunities available for supporting Pace, engaging parent and alumni volunteers, receiving and stewarding gifts, and recognizing and celebrating our extraordinary donors and exciting accomplishments. I hope that you’ll take a moment to meet our team, and that you won’t hesitate to reach out if we can be of assistance.
