Keith Worthy

Head Counselor & Administrative Staff Since 1982

Keith has passed his 25th summer at Glen Brook, so we’re starting to think he likes it here. The rest of the year Keith works in the Springfield Public School District where he’s been since 1984. He first served as a counselor for students with behavioral and academic issues, and since 2006 has been the Assistant Principal for Springfield Central High School (the Washington Post has named his school in the top 5% of public schools in the country.) While Keith loves his work during the year, he always looks forward to his time at Glen Brook each summer– he started coming to Glen Brook as a student of the Waldorf School of Garden City. We always love to have Keith’s enthusiasm for games played with good sportsmanship, and his genuine enthusiasm for everything that happens at Camp. Keith is joined by his son, Matthew, at Camp each summer, and his two older children attended the Camp for years, as well.
