  Tim Pratt earned his BA in political science from Middlebury College, and his MA in English from the Bread Loaf School of English. He joined the faculty of St. Paul's School in the fall of 1999, after teaching for one year at Hebron Academy and nine years at Tabor Academy in Marion, MA. Over his 20-plus years of educational experience, Mr. Pratt has taught history, English, and humanities, and coached ice hockey, golf, soccer, baseball, and tennis. He brings a deep appreciation for the lives of students in boarding schools, having grown up at and attended Phillips Exeter Academy, where his father was an English teacher and hockey coach.

  Mr. Pratt takes great pleasure in helping to guide students and parents through the college admissions process, and to helping them to uncover and explore the many wonderful opportunities available to them. In his words, “the best part of working at SPS is being around so many bright, motivated, and talented students. Everyone here is intelligent, but they bring so many other remarkable talents to our community as well. Our students never cease to amaze me!”
  
  An avid golfer and squash player, Mr. Pratt enjoys participating in “just about any sport.” He and his wife, Kerri, reside on campus with their three boys and dog, Scooby.

  READ BIO

  Originally hailing from Hong Kong, Irene graduated magna cum laude from St. Paul's School in 2003 and was the recipient of the School Medal. Upon graduating from Princeton University, she worked on appellate-level antitrust matters at the Department of Justice before matriculating at Harvard Law School. While practicing law in New York City, Irene began volunteering with a community-based organization providing assistance on the college application process to under-resourced students. This work particularly resonated with Irene, and she left the legal world to join Suffield Academy's college advising office. While there she also earned a Certificate in College Counseling from UCLA, taught a section of Leadership, served as freshmen class adviser and dorm parent, and conducted the outdoor leadership program. 

   

  At SPS, in addition to her work in the college advising office, she works with the yearbook and lives in Simpson House. During her free time, you'll find Irene and her husband Andy (also SPS '03) cooking up a storm in their kitchen, hiking in the mountains, and exploring our beautiful national parks.
