Women in Leadership Luncheon - Dana Herzberg of the Jones-Gordon School

Our February program features Dana Herzberg, Founder & Head of School of The Jones-Gordon School, whose entrepreneurial vision and leadership have reshaped specialized education in our community. From launching On-Track Tutoring in 1999 to founding and growing The Jones-Gordon School into a thriving college-preparatory institution serving more than 160 students, Dana’s career reflects resilience, strategic growth, and purpose-driven leadership. Her journey from educator to headmaster offers powerful lessons on building mission-aligned organizations, leading with conviction, and turning challenges into opportunities for impact.
 

Dana’s story begins with adversity—navigating dyslexia and dyscalculia as a high-ability student—and evolves into a lifelong calling to help others discover their strengths when traditional systems fall short. Through resilience, mentorship, and purpose-driven leadership, she transformed her own challenges into a model of educational innovation that now serves hundreds of students and families.

At this luncheon, Dana will share her deeply personal story of perseverance, leadership, and vision, offering insight into how lived experience can become a catalyst for meaningful change. Attendees will gain inspiration, perspective, and practical leadership lessons rooted in empathy, advocacy, and courage.
