Serving on an independent school board is one of the most meaningful volunteer roles a community member can take on, and also one of the most demanding. Trustees are asked to think strategically about finance, understand their role in supporting the head of school, stay current on the trends shaping independent education, and represent the school well in advancement efforts, often without formal preparation for any of it.
These webinar recordings focus on a core areas of board work giving trustees practical tools and a clearer sense of their role, whether they’re just joining a board or have served for years.
