Mission and Function
The Board of Trustees’ mission is to take action on behalf of the next generation of students. The Board meets at least six times a year and works extensively in between meetings through its committee structure. Current committees include Executive, Finance, Risk Management, Development, and Head Support and Evaluation.
Composition
St. Luke’s Episcopal School is a vital ministry of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. The school is governed by a Board of Trustees that endeavors to maintain a close, healthy, working relationship with the vestry, clergy, administration, and members of the Church. The Board is ultimately accountable to the vestry of the church.
The composition of the Board is complex; it is comprised of both church and non-church representatives. The church representatives have one more voting member than non-church representatives. Terms of service are either one year (appointed) or three years (elected) and can be renewed.

"I believe in St. Luke's.
It is a nurturing educational community that provides a wonderful academic, moral, spiritual, and creative foundation for its students. If I can contribute to supporting the
school's strengths
and improving its weaknesses, I see that as time and energy well spent."
