Peter Vitz graduated from New York University, a stone’s throw from his Greenwich Village home, with a B.A. in psychology. After several years working in advertising, architecture, and design, he now builds young men of character as a teacher at The Heights School. He joined the faculty in 2007, teaching fourth grade homeroom for seven years. He now shares his artistic talent teaching art in the lower school. Peter also teaches 5th grade natural history – an opportunity he enjoys immensely as the boys finish their time in the Valley. Peter has also coached Junior Varsity Soccer every year since beginning at The Heights. He and his wife, Ann, live in Derwood with their six children.
His talk will cover:
- The Importance of Appreciating Beauty
