CESJDS Board of Directors

The Board is responsible for the governance of the school. The more than 20 members of the Board of Directors are committed to ensuring that CESJDS provides a superior and accessible education to all of our students The Board has the responsibility to govern the School's affairs, including:

  • Establishing a strategic vision for the school;
  • Selecting and retaining the Head of School;
  • Ensuring the School’s current and long-term financial integrity;
  • Guiding our development efforts – which are key to the accessibility of our institution;
  • Growing strong relationships with the broader Jewish community.

The Board is also very focused on the affordability of a CESJDS education. We know that providing an outstanding education is dependent on attracting and retaining the best faculty. We seek to ensure that we have sufficient resources to subsidize the cost of this education to ensure that the School is achieving its mission and accessible to a diverse range of students through our strong tuition assistance program.

There are so many ways to be involved as a parent at CESJDS. Being active is the best way to get the most out of the CESJDS community – we welcome you.

And for those of you who are considering a CESJDS education for your children, the website is just one way to learn about our school. Please set up a time for a personal visit, as nothing can replace seeing our students, teachers, and faculty members in action. Our community is special because we believe so deeply in the vision of the school – and because of the engagement of so many caring volunteers.
