Procedure for contacting the senior school administrator and governing board
The school’s policy is to manage communications, including grievances, using the chain of command, which typically involves, in order: the teacher, coach, or program leader, then the Head of School, then the Superintendent, then the governing board via the Board Chair. Except in emergencies, email is the preferred mode of initial engagement. The school welcomes and encourages pre-scheduled, in-person meetings.
Interim CEO: Mr. Robert Kelly
