Per the School Bylaws, the government of the School, under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, is vested in a Board of Trustees and carried out by the duly appointed administration and faculty.
Trustees must be Godly men and women who are in full agreement with the Statement of Belief and be parents of children currently or previously enrolled in the School.
The fundamental purpose of the Board is to act as a legislative body in formulating policy for the conduct of the school. It is recognized that God is the final authority, and the primary function of the Board is to seek the will of God and to serve as His instrument as the final earthly authority in all matters pertaining to the School. The responsibilities of the Board are:
- The establishment of policy;
- The governance under such policies;
- The hiring and, as needed, the replacement of the Headmaster;
- The purchase, sale or use of school property;
- The size of the school and class population;
- The approval of the budget;
- The establishment, as needed, of additional entities controlled by or associated with the School;
- The oversight of the School finances; and
- The active promotion and support of the School in the community and financially.
The Board seeks to carry out the majority of its work through committees. The purpose of the Committees is to provide godly wisdom to the Board and the Headmaster. Board Committees are composed of at least one Trustee, who serves as Committee Chairman, and other individuals who are selected by the Committee Chairman and Board Chairman. |
