Metzger was selected from a national search of top-tier independent school administrators and comes to The Saklan School from The German American International School in Menlo Park, where he has served as Head of School for the past seven years. Prior to that, he served for nineteen years as the Director of the International School of Trieste and the Udine International School, both in northern Italy. Metzger also brings international school experience in Spain and a background as the treasurer for the Mediterranean Association of International Schools Executive Board of Directors. Before serving as a Head of School, he taught math, social studies, language arts and physical education in grade levels 4 - 12.
During his interview day with the full Saklan community, Metzger made a strong impression on the 18-student interview panel with his ability to answer their questions not only with honesty and humor but also in fluent Italian and German. He was also invited to jam with several of the students who were equally impressed by his ability to play guitar.
The Saklan School is excited to welcome Hans-Peter Metzger to its community. For a tour or application information, visit The Saklan School at www.saklan.org, stop by the office at 1678 School Street, Moraga, or call (925) 376-7900.
