Board Leadership
St. Paul's Academy is an independent 501(c)3 educational institution, governed by a Board of 17 Trustees. The Board strives to maintain a membership that features a range of talents and experience.
The function of the Board is to advance the mission of the school, maintain corporate documents, and set policy. It is also responsible for the financial well-being of the school, including fundraising. The Head of School, in contrast, manages day-to-day activities of the school, including staffing, curriculum, and financial matters.
