Libbie Zimmer has been named learning skills consultant for the 2005-06 school year. In this capacity, she will assist incoming president Tom Whitworth and others in developing a comprehensive plan for supporting learning differences, continuing a school-wide emphasis on brain-based learning and developing pro-active strategies for students experiencing academic difficulty.
She will report directly to Whitworth, but will also work closely with the Upper School, Middle School and Lower School heads, as well as the academic dean and the Academic Committee. This is a part-time position.
Zimmer has been on staff at Darlington for eight years, and has broad experience in working with the students in residence halls, on the Discipline Committee and in day-to-day student life. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Development from Meredith College and a Master of Education in Early Childhood Special Education from Virginia Commonwealth University.
She and her husband Casey, director of admission for Darlington, live on campus and have two children, Ellie and William.
