I am happy to bring more scrutiny to the school, even though the article is from 2016 and Mr. Hirschfeld has already retired early.

Quote:


There is at least one more very heavy shoe to drop. Last fall, the authorities in New Hampshire charged Donald Levesque, a former teacher’s assistant at a nearby day school, with luring two of his former students—an 18-year-old girl and an under-age boy—in December 2013 for a mutual sexual encounter in his home, and with repeatedly abusing the boy over several months. Public records and local media reports in Concord have identified the girl as a St. Paul’s senior at the time; the boy is understood to be the son of a St. Paul’s staff member. A date has not yet been set for trial, but a public airing of the sordid details of the case would only bring more scrutiny to the school and raise new questions about Hirschfeld’s leadership.
