Responsible for oversight of the School, the Board establishes strategic direction for the school with the assistance of the Head of School and Senior Leadership Team. Great schools rely on skilled leadership, and our governors are recruited for their skills, expertise, alignment to the mission and vision of the school, and their commitment to the values of SMLS. This includes finance, accounting, technology, governance, property development, strategy, human resources, fundraising or marketing. Board members are committed volunteers, drawn from current and past parents, alumnae, the Community of the Sisters of the Church, and friends of the school.
