For 12 years, Chad Stacy served as CFO at Dunn School, a 250-student day and boarding school for grades 6-12 in Los Olivos, California. In that time, he led the school to a position of greater financial strength, from the aftermath of the Great Recession through the COVID-19 pandemic. His creation and long-term use of a financial sustainability heat map has not only been key to Dunn’s financial health but has also helped other schools that picked up the tool after Stacy shared it in NBOA’s Net Assets magazine in 2016. In fall 2022, Stacy transitioned to serving as director of the Robert W. Jurgensen Entrepreneurship Program at Dunn. He had previously mentored student entrepreneurial efforts across campus, such as a student investment program, and in his current role, he oversees real world student-led consulting and business efforts. Before Dunn, Stacy served as director of finance at Literacy Pittsburgh for eight years, and he began his career as a certified public accountant at Ernst & Young. He has been a board chair, treasurer, trustee and vestry member for several nonprofit churches, arts and social services organizations.
