A Grateful Farewell after 123 Remarkable Years

Carey Goodman

December 2025

After 123 years of serving schools and educators, Southern Teachers is closed and will not be accepting new business.

However, several of the talented individuals and groups that we’ve gotten to know and trust over the years continue to provide services that you should consider.

Head Searches and Administrative Jobs: both schools and candidates should contact Tim Viands.

Executive Coaching: Rod Chamberlain is an excellent resource for you.

School Finance Mentoring: this service is for both new and aspiring heads of school, as well as new CFOs. Contact Mike Waylett.

Florida Schools!  Contact Rich Gehman for new head-of-school mentoring or board governance.

Athletic Assessments and AD Mentoring: contact Carey Goodman to discuss your options.

Art Assessments: contact Rick Seay.

Please feel free to contact me, Carey Goodman, with questions about their offerings or simply connect with them directly.

As the now-retired owner of Southern Teachers, I am immensely proud of the agency’s legacy and deeply grateful for the opportunity to spend my career doing the work I was meant to do.
