Deborah Schultz
Director of External Affairs

If you weren't in your current role at SBS, what other opportunities, professionally or personally, would you like to explore?
I'd be on Broadway, which is weird because I can't carry a tune.

What made you want to work at SBS?
I attended an all-girls school for my middle school years and it was important to be at a school where a girl was the best math student, led every team, and held every leadership role. 

What is a fun fact about you?
I'm a character in a book, I went to elementary school with Steve Carell, and I used to work for Kevin O'Leary.

What made you want to work at SBS?
It has been wonderful to work alongside such dedicated adults and students. There is a special community at Stoneleigh-Burnham, and it's amazing to see that warmth and kindness in-person.
 
What is the most exciting aspect of working at SBS?
I love to travel to equestrian competitions and cheer on our IEA teams! Having ridden for over two decades, the equestrian program is something I love to support on and off-campus.
 
What is your favorite activity to do off-campus?
Nature has always been a focal point in my life, so I try to spend time outside, whether it's at the barn, on hikes, bird-watching, or sightseeing.
 
What is a fun fact about you?
I name my animals after bugs, so I have a Siberian cat, Honeybee, and a Smooth Collie, Dobsonfly. I live on campus, so you'll have the opportunity to see them around since they both walk on leashes!

What made you want to work at SBS?
I love being a part of a student’s journey to become the best version of themselves, and SBS supports each student in self-discovery, which is amazing!

What is your favorite spot on campus?
I enjoy the courtyard, especially in the spring when everything is in bloom but you’ll likely find me in my cozy office, my other favorite spot.

What is the most important thing a prospective student should know about SBS?
At Stoneleigh-Burnham you will be surrounded by a community that truly wants to see you succeed and will be cheering you on and helping you every step of the way.

What is the most exciting aspect of working at SBS?
Learning from our amazing community! The students, faculty, staff (and even pets!) have such unique experiences, many talents, and interesting stories to tell, and I’m always learning something new. I love being able to share these moments with families who are exploring SBS.

What is your favorite tradition at SBS?
The Victory Bell! It’s a big, old bell that sits in the middle of the courtyard, and when one of our teams wins a game or match, they all ring the bell together. The bell is right next to my office, and I love to watch the team celebrate… loudly!

What was your favorite subject in high school? 
English and Drama. If I wasn’t reading a book for a class, I was memorizing lines for a show.
