Organization and Governance

Inly School is organized as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and is exempt from taxes under the laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It is governed by a Board of Trustees which is responsible for policy issues and the appointment and review of the Head of School who oversees the operation of the School.

The Board is comprised of up to 21 members, including current and alumni parents and external education experts. These individuals are elected on a staggered basis for three-year terms. The Head of School and Director of Finance and Operations serve as ex-officio, non-voting members.

The Board is split into an Executive Committee, a Committee on Trustees, and two groups whose work concentrates on ‘Financial Affairs’ and ‘Mission and Vision’ respectively.

  • The Financial Affairs group focuses on advancement, master plan, human resources, audit, finance, and investment.
  • The Mission and Vision group focuses on Strategic Plan initiatives (including innovation, long-term trends, and inclusion).

Inly’s Mission and Vision


The Board meets monthly and reports annually to the Inly community. They periodically review a strategic plan for the School.
