Peter H. Wells, Ph.D, has worked in independent schools for forty-two years, as a teacher, department head, head of upper school, college counselor, admissions director, dean of students, and for the last 25 years as a nationally certified school psychologist. His work as a psychologist has been concerned not only with counseling individuals but with the mental and physical health of a whole school community. That community health interest has led to five student health surveys and application of the results to community dialogue and action.”
