Faculty & Staff List 2025-26

My name is Stormy LaRoche and I am fortunate to be HCS's Assistant Head of School.

I am currently in my 11th year at Hampshire Country School and cannot imagine myself dedicating my career to a greater place or cause - the education and support of frequently misunderstood neurodivergent students in a beautiful rural setting surrounded by colleagues who share a common vision and purpose.

I joined HCS in early 2014 as School Nurse and enjoyed 11 years in that position. In spring 2025 I gratefully accepted the position of Assistant Head of School.

I obtained my Practical Nursing diploma from Fortis College in Westerville, Ohio in 2011, and a BA in General Studies with a concentration in Business Management from Southern New Hampshire University in 2021. I hold current certifications in both Autism and Student Mental Health from IBCESS. I am also a certified Comprehensive Sexual Health educator. 

I am a New Hampshire native and live in the nearby town of Swanzey with my husband and our two golden retrievers. When not on campus, I can be found antiquing, vacationing in the White Mountains or at the New Hampshire seacoast, or at home knitting or embroidering next to a strong cup of coffee.

Fun fact: I am a former boarding school student myself; I attended Northfield Mount Hermon school in Northfield, Massachusetts for my freshman and sophomore years.
