The Board is the steward of the school’s future and works closely with the Head of School, the steward of the school’s day-to-day operations. The Board consists of approximately 15 members, 25 percent of whom are Quakers. The Board and its subcommittees conduct their business consistent with the decision-making practices of the Religious Society of Friends.
