Grace Christian School Board of Trustees

Grace Christian School is directed by a Board of Trustees.  The trustees are charged primarily with the important task of seeing that Grace remains true to its essential mission distinctives.  They also ensure that Grace operates according to sound financial practices.  Lastly, they focus on strategic issues in planning for the future of Grace as well as evaluating Grace's effectiveness in accomplishing its stated vision.  The Trustees do not become involved in the day-to-day administrative functions of Grace.

The board is self-perpetuating in that trustees are nominated and appointed by the board and serve three year terms which may be renewed upon the consent of the individual trustee and vote by the larger board.

We are fortunate to be served by this dedicated group of trustees who serve on behalf of our larger school community.
