Reed officially joined USN on July 1, 2022 as our 11th Director and the first person of color to lead the K-12 educational institution founded as Peabody Demonstration School in 1915. In a full circle moment, he comes to USN after serving as Head of The School at Columbia University and studying at Teachers College, where Peabody Demonstration School Founder Thomas Alexander created a progressive undergraduate experience to shape future educators. Columbia blue is the surviving tie of PDS/USN to the old University of Nashville.
