The Sussex Board of Directors are elected by Sussex Parents and provide leadership in school governance, strategic planning, and long-term school advancement in partnership with the Head of School. The board collectively performs each of these key responsibilities:

  • Provides counsel, oversight, evaluation, and support to the Head of School.

  • Annual self-assessment of the Sussex Board to measure performance and effectiveness.

  • Service on board committees or task forces, and active contribution towards the completion of tasks and projects.

  • Direct support of annual school fundraising and advancement.

  • Approval of Sussex School’s annual budget, tuition, and material business decisions.

  • Maintaining governance requirements for accreditation.

  • Engaging in long-term strategic planning of the school, and in actions required to see strategic plans to fruition.

  • Serve as an ambassador of Sussex School, building awareness and excitement within our own community, and within the larger community about our school.

  • Ensuring Sussex School’s commitment to a high-impact board and staff, and a joyful and creative progressive learning community.

Much of the work of the Sussex Board is done in committees that are open to our community members to join, including: Advancement; Facilities; Technology; and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Please reach out to learn more about the Sussex Board of Directors or how to get involved!
