Board of Trustees

Welcome

Thank you for your interest in the WNS Board of Trustees.

The WNS Board engages in:

  • Long-term strategic planning;
  • Oversight of the school’s financial sustainability;
  • Selection, support, and evaluation of the Head of School;
  • Fundraising to advance the school’s mission and programs.

Trustees devote considerable time and expertise to Board duties, including committee work and external advocacy.


I am very proud of our Board and the diversity of backgrounds and perspectives each member brings to our deliberations. Board members’ knowledge and support are critical to advancing our mission while remaining true to our values.

Gratefully,

David Charlton
