Board of Trustees

A group of committed parents, alumni, and civic leaders who volunteer their time and expertise on the Charles Wright Academy Board of Trustees. We greatly appreciate their talents in guiding and supporting the school. Contact Us. 

The Board of Trustees of Charles Wright Academy has paramount responsibility for the governance of the school. The Board of Trustees exists to make decisions and take action to ensure the viability of Charles Wright’s mission into the future, for the current students’ children. The Head of School is delegated the responsibility for the school’s day-to-day management and operation. The Board has the duty and authority to:

• Craft and periodically review the school’s mission statement and ensure that the mission is pursued consistently and effectively

• Develop plans for the long-term future of the school and monitor progress toward the achievement of those plans

• Ensure the school has adequate financial resources to support its programs

• Assess the quality of the school’s programs in fulfilling its mission

• Preserve the school’s independence: its ability to be self-governing and to determine its own mission

• Oversee the legal affairs of the school
