The Executive Committee conducts a monthly conference call to plan the monthly Board meeting agendas. In an emergency, if the full Board cannot be assembled, the Executive Committee may meet. Rules for such circumstances are outlined in the by-laws. The Executive Committee acts as a sounding board for the Head of School and oversees his/her annual evaluation.

The Building Committee oversees and liaises on matters of facility maintenance, strategic planning, improvements, and expansion. It works with the Finance Committee to manage capital expenditures and, in the case of capital campaigns, with the Development Committee.

The Committee on Trustees plans for trustee succession, including new trustee recruitment, cultivation, and orientation. Its role expands to include professional development for trustees on trusteeship and best practices, and trustee self-evaluation oversight.

The Committee on Institutional Advancement oversees the school’s Annual Fund, Major Gifts, and its two annual fundraising events. This committee works to build a culture of philanthropy and involvement within the school, and works to protect and expand the school’s brand. It determines the school’s key messages, marketing goals, and strategies. It oversees the school’s web presence and assists in the planning and design of multimedia marketing tools and advertising/marketing campaigns. It meets monthly, and more often during event planning.

The Diversity Committee made up of Trustees, Parents, and Faculty.  Its current goal is to work with a diversity consultant to audit our current practices and curriculum, make recommendations for change, and create an action plan that will be shared with the entire community for feedback and conversation.

The Finance Committee meets every six weeks. Its functions include drafting the school budget for Board approval, updating the Board regarding the financial health of school, reviewing insurance plans, addressing financial infrastructure, and strategic planning for the school’s financial health.
