Joan Edwards is the Director of Equity and Professional Collaboration at CAIS. She is also a facilitator of adult learning sessions where attendees get to explore new and meaningful ways to structure their mindset and professional practice. A poet and a people person, Joan’s work in independent schools began in 1987 as a French teacher - a job she planned to do for only a few years. That short term plan, and her passion for and commitment to building stronger, more equitable school communities instead grew into an extensive career in independent schools, with administrative roles in admissions, student life, and equity work.
Joan joined CAIS in 2021 and the association has been served by both her love of language, people, and social justice, as well as her certification as both a SEED and Points of You facilitator and regular invitation to collaborate on programs such as The Equity Exchange and the Multicultural Teaching Institute. When not collaborating with the CAIS team to create meaningful professional learning events, Joan can be found outside writing and reading poetry.
