Fun and educational after-school programs for all ages.
As leading directors of RISE Montessori, the Board is charged with overall long range, strategic planning of the school. Each member actively promotes the school’s vision while accepting the accountability for both the financial stability and mission and vision of the school.
Our current Board has 5 members, with different background. Each member brings unique personal experience from a variety of diverse professional backgrounds. From financial leaders and members of the education, science, technology, art and engineering , the collective experience of the Board provides a comprehensive, overall perspective.
Meeting two times a year, Board members serve on standing committees including, Administrative and Finance, Standards and Search, Capital Campaign, and Communications & Marketing. An elective Board Chair and Secretary, along with the head of school, nurture and guide all major policy decisions.
