Board of Trustees

← Back

As a non-profit school, Emerson is guided by a Board of Trustees that honors our school’s past while providing direction for its future. It is a diverse group, and each trustee brings a unique set of personal and professional skills.

All board members serve on one or more committees, including Advancement, Buildings & Grounds, Diversity, Finance, Governance, Investment, and Risk. Full descriptions and responsibilities of each committee can be found here. These committees are a great way for parents to become involved in our school’s leadership. For any general inquiries, requests for information, or to express an interest in serving on the Board of Trustees or on any one of our committees, please email the Board of Trustees at emersonboardoftrustees@gmail.com.

Emerson is a proud member of NAIS (National Association of Independent Schools) and follows its principles of good practice with regard to trusteeship and board responsibilities.
