The Board
Pioneer Valley is a non-profit organization, governed by a Board of Trustees, in accordance with the by-laws.
The Board of Trustees meets monthly.
Serving on the PVMS Board of Trustees or on one of its various committees is a great way to give to the school. The Board has an ongoing need to attract potential Trustees from within and outside the PVMS community. We seek those who have experience or expertise in the following areas: Law, Finance, Education, Development/Fundraising, Contracting/Architecture,
Administration/Organization, and Community Connection.
We currently are seeking nominations. If you have the interest and time, please consider applying for a position on our Board of Trustees. If interested, contact the board at board@mypvms.org
