Dear Mack Boulder Community,

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, we are pleased to share that the Board has unanimously approved the Search Committee’s recommendation of Bo Adams as the next Head of School of Mackintosh Academy Boulder. Bo has enthusiastically accepted the position.

Bo brings more than three decades of experience in independent schools, with a strong focus on student-centered learning, curriculum innovation, and faculty development. Throughout the search process, he stood out for his thoughtful, collaborative leadership style and his alignment with Mackintosh’s mission and values.

We are grateful to all members of the Mack Boulder community who engaged in this process through forums, conversations, and surveys. Your insights were an important part of the committee’s work. We also extend our sincere thanks to the Search Committee for their dedication and care throughout this effort.

Bo will officially begin his role as Head of School on July 1, 2026. In the coming months, we will share opportunities for the community to get to know him and support a smooth transition.

We are excited for this next chapter at Mack Boulder and look forward to the leadership Bo will bring to our community.
