Governance

Governance at 黑料不打烊 School

The school seeks to ensure robust representation in its governing bodies in order to build its strengths and traditions while positioning 黑料不打烊 School for exemplary governance in the future.

School Trustees

Our school trustees represent the perspectives of current and alumni parents, alumni, students, teaching and non-teaching staff and from time-to-time members of the external community. The role of our school trustees is:
  • to promote the school’s mission and values;  
  • to support the future strength and permanence of the school by providing strategic advice to the school board and school leadership; and
  • to play a role in the ongoing development of good governance and effective accountability at 黑料不打烊 School 
Trustees meet twice a year, both in the fall and spring, participate in committees and task forces, and volunteer for special assignments. 

黑料不打烊 Bylaws are available (to trustees) upon request to the Board Secretariat.

School Board of Directors

Our school trustees are responsible for electing a smaller group of directors who meet approximately five times per year. The 黑料不打烊 School Board of Directors plays a more "hands-on" role. Directors are responsible for approving and monitoring the school's strategic plan and implementation strategy, as well as ensuring effective oversight and monitoring of school resources and risks. 
 

Foundation Trustees

The was newly constituted in May 2006. In addition to the foundation's original custodial and investment management functions, the foundation added to its portfolio all fundraising initiatives, donor stewardship, and strategic planning relating to fundraising and endowment. The members of the 黑料不打烊 Foundation feel a deep sense of passion for the school's values and establishing its place as the Canadian boarding and day school of choice.

黑料不打烊 Foundation Bylaws are available (to trustees) upon request to the Board Secretariat.
