​Board & Governance

​​​

Who Governs KTS?

  • Since 2006, KTS has operated as a not-for-profit, charitable organization, meaning all resources are reinvested into our students, staff, and facilities.

  • King’s Town School is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, currently made up of four members, each a current or former parent.
     

From “Working Board” to “Governance Board”

  • Like many small independent schools, KTS has been operating with a working board — board members took on hands-on, day-to-day tasks.

  • In 2023/24, we invested in the Executive Director role to strengthen operations and support the school’s growth.

  • Today, the Board is moving to a governance model, focusing on:

    • Strategic direction

    • Oversight and accountability

    • Long-term sustainability

  • Daily operations are led by the Executive Director

  • Educational Programming is led by the Principal
     

What Being a Charity Means

  • Our charitable status ensures:

    • Every dollar is reinvested in programs, staff, and facilities.

    • We issue tax receipts for eligible donations.

    • We meet high standards of transparency and accountability.

  • Above all, it reflects our mission: to provide an exceptional, student-centered education in an inclusive and supportive environment.
     

Community Engagement

  • We value feedback from parents and families in our community. 

  • The Board is committed to:

    • Providing regular, timely updates.

    • Engaging with families in meaningful dialogue.

 

Get Involved

  • We are seeking additional volunteer board members with skills in areas such as marketing, finance, governance or facilities.

  • Board members attend monthly meetings and may also serve on committees or lead special projects.

  • To learn more or express interest, please connect with us via email at: boardofdirectors@kingstownschool.ca.

Together, we are strengthening our governance, ensuring sustainability, and building a vibrant future for King’s Town School.
