Thank You, Trey

This year’s commencement festivities marked the end of Trey Cassidy’s 8 year tenure as the 13th Head of School in Bancroft’s 122 year history. During his time on Shore Drive, Trey was instrumental in leading major campus enhancements and renovations including the restoration of the Bancroft Field House building and upgrades to the Upper School facilities including technology and arts spaces. Under Trey’s guidance, Bancroft added extensive community service initiatives and partnerships in Worcester and also launched a broad range of global study trips for students to experience the cultures, diversity, and complexities of different parts of the world. He also played a major role in the school’s first major capital campaign in 17 years entitled Out In Front which raised over 8 million dollars to help improve the student experience. Trey had a major part in executing Vision 2016, Bancroft’s strategic plan that had been launched prior to his arrival. In 2019, he worked closely with the entire Bancroft community to help develop and launch BluePrint 125, Bancroft’s 5-year strategic plan and an extensive self-reflective process that produced major initiatives for the school to focus on in the coming years.

Trey wasn’t the only member of the Cassidy family to make major contributions to our campus community. His wife Bonnie was a regular volunteer at countless events and his daughters Bridgette ‘23 and Page ‘20 have been stand out student leaders, philanthropists, and multi-sport athletes. Please join us in thanking Trey and the Cassidy family for everything they have done for Bancroft School!
