The Board of Directors and Foundation Board of Directors of Trafalgar Castle School are a hard-working and committed group of volunteers working for the best interests of the School. The Board is focused on having a membership that is representative of all its stakeholders and is therefore comprised of parents, alumnae and external friends of the School.
We are currently seeking applicants for the 2025-2026 term. At this time, we particularly welcome candidates with expertise in the following areas:
- Communications
- Fundraising
- Post-secondary education
The Board meets approximately ten times a year, and Board members are also asked to sit on one committee, which may meet monthly. Board members are recruited with reference to criteria, which include specific skills and/or expertise, the ability to dedicate time and resources, and a willingness to contribute to the school’s Annual Fund while ensuring that the Boards reflect the diversity of our community. Members serve on these Boards for a three-year term (which can be renewed for a maximum of two times).
The Board of Directors and Foundation Board of Directors solicit the community for individuals interested in serving on the Boards or their committees and maintain a list of those who have expressed such an interest. On an annual basis, the Governance Committee reviews the composition of the Boards and their committees in reference to the School’s strategic plan and recommends to the Board potential candidates to fill any required positions. Generally, the Board elects new members in September at its Annual General Meeting. Each year board members are required to sign an Agreement to Serve.
If you are interested, or know of anyone who might have an interest, please submit the candidate form and any supporting documents on or before April 30, 2025, to the Governance Committee (governance@nulltrafalgarcastle.ca). All expressions of interest will be gratefully received and considered by the Governance Committee. A short list of candidates will be subject to an interview process.
