AdmissionsQuest Management

Peter Baron
Peter’s desire to connect schools and families grows naturally from his experiences. He founded AdmissionsQuest as an online resource for schools and families to come together.

AdmissionsQuest dedicates itself to providing clear, timely, unbiased information to families who are working through the independent school admission process.

Schools can connect with site visitors via a range of social media inspired tools and families can keep up-to-date on the latest independent school happening via AdmissionsQuest's popular blog (onBoarding Schools), podcast series (Boarding School Podcast) and a vast library of admission articles.

Prior to founding AdmissionQuest, Peter served as Program Manager for the Historic Neighborhoods Foundation in Boston where he oversaw and developed programs focused on public debate of urban design issues and their economic effects. Peter later joined the organization's Board of Directors after founding AdmissionsQuest.

Peter attended Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, NH. He earned is BA from Skidmore College and MAT from Tufts University. Peter's teaching experiences include Fenway Middle College High School, Pine Ridge School and Wolfeboro, The Summer Boarding School.
