Governing Board

This is a body formed by parents and staff. This group works with the school administration to discuss and recommend major orientations for the school. It is a representative body whose members are chosen during the Annual General Assembly at the beginning of each school year, usually during the first or second week of September. Please refer to the calendar for the exact date and time of this meeting. The GB meetings are traditionally held once per month and last approximately an hour or an hour and a half.
