About

Trustees

The Board of Trustees is a self-perpetuating group of alumni, past parents, parents, and friends of the school whose primary charge is to safeguard the mission of the school and insure its financial stability. As such, they are fiduciaries of the whole, collectively responsible for the welfare of the school, along with the Head. Trustees give generously of their time, talents, and treasure to further the best interests of the school. Focused on "the view from 10,000 feet," they are not involved in the daily operational issues, including program and personnel matters.
