Jason Anklowitz is the Head of Whitby School. Though a native of New Jersey, Jason first learned to read and write in Spanish while attending a Montessori school in Madrid. The experience left such an impression that Jason later returned to Spain where he worked at the American School of Madrid following his graduation from George Washington University. Upon his return to the United States, Jason worked as part of the Teach for America program in Washington, D.C. He later completed a Master of Education degree from Harvard University. He entered the independent school world for the first time in 2004 and, following terms at schools in Boston and Washington, D.C., Jason spent seven years at the International School of Trieste in northeastern Italy, the last five of which he was the school’s Director. Jason has spent the past five years at Carlthorp School in Santa Monica, California, most recently as the Associate Head of School. While living in Los Angeles, Jason completed his Master of Business Administration at UCLA’s Anderson School of Management with a concentration in Entrepreneurialism.
