Cambridge Ridley Lynch

Director of Curriculum & Lifelong Learning

—

Cambridge Ridley Lynch has lived on the Upper West Side since 2010. Her career as a history educator has spanned university classrooms, museum spaces, and middle-school hallways. In 2024 she graduated with a Master of Education degree in Independent School Leadership from the Klingenstein Center at Teachers College.

Cambridge works towards an expansive understanding of what education is (and can be) in a vibrant urban community that is diverse in its beliefs, values, and needs. She is excited about the strategic challenge of knitting community together in a fractured world, and feels lucky to be able to build on the ineffable “next-door” quality that makes West End Church such a special corner of the Upper West Side!
