  Jennifer Weeden 

  Director of Admission

  508 490-8203

  Bio

  Jennifer Weeden joined the Fay School admissions team in July 2019 as Assistant Director of Admission and she now serves as the Director of Admission. She has over 20  years of admissions experience, having worked from early learning through to the secondary school level and with day and boarding school families. 

  
  

  The part of her work that Jennifer enjoys most is meeting and getting to know applicant students and their families. “Hearing about all the things each student loves to do, finding out what has worked well in school, and learning about each student’s hopes and dreams for the future makes this work endlessly rewarding. Helping parents understand the fit between our program and their child as a learner and as a citizen of the world gives them a chance to consider both who their child is today and who their child is poised to become.”

  
  

  Jennifer lives nearby with her family, and they all enjoy cooking together, traveling, and spending time outdoors. She has participated in Fay's Community Connections group to help foster dialog within our open, caring, and diverse school and has served as a student advisor. She has coached town soccer, volunteered with the Girl Scouts, and has mentored elementary school students through a reading program in partnership with Boston Public Schools.

  Bio

  Amanda joined Fay in July 2021 as Associate Director of Admission. She brings with her 20 years of high school and middle school admission experience in the Boston area, having most recently worked at Dana Hall School.

Amanda has always appreciated the wonderful balance of strong work ethic, intellectual curiosity, and love of community demonstrated by Fay students and looks forward to now working directly with Fay students and families.
  
  Interacting with students and families is Amanda’s favorite part of the admission process- helping parents to learn about their child and see the many ways that Fay can help their child grow, develop, be challenged, and figure out who they want to become. Amanda has a B.A. in Psychology from Trinity College and an M.Ed. from Harvard University Graduate School of Education. She lives in Wayland with her husband and two sons.
