Our Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors plays a vital role in guiding the vision and sustainability of Classen Montessori School. The board meets on a monthly basis and is composed entirely of dedicated volunteers who bring a diverse range of expertise and perspectives.Board members include current and alumni families, experienced educators, policy advocates, Montessori enthusiasts, and finance professionals. This broad representation helps ensure that our decisions are thoughtful, balanced, and grounded in both our mission and the needs of the community we serve.Together, our Board provides oversight, strategic direction, and unwavering support for our staff, programs, and long-term goals.
Open Board Meetings are held at least once every year. These board meetings are open to the CMS community, so that parents and supporters of CMS can meet with the board and discuss ideas, concerns, development plans, or anything else. The board of CMS is the ultimate representative of the children: its job is to make sure that resources are allocated in the interest of the children so that CMS can be the best possible place to be a developing and learning child.
Director and Board Member Meetings – Any parent can ask to meet with the Head of School or board member any time. We value and appreciate ideas, suggestions, and feedback. CMS is a community school, and it is the combined efforts of our community that makes it great.
