MIDDLETOWN, R.I. – A Rhode Island boarding school rocked by widespread sexual abuse says it has hired a new head of school to succeed its departing leader.
St. George’s School in Middletown said on Friday that Alexandra Callen will become the first woman to lead the 120-year-old school when she takes over in July.
Callen has held leadership positions in public and private schools in Seattle and Massachusetts.
Dozens of alumni have said they were abused at St. George’s from the 1970s to the 2000s.
