Abstract
The National Association for Independent Schools or NAIS is a non-profit membership association headquartered in Washington D.C. that specifically serves schools and associations of schools across the United States and abroad. NAIS has discovered that some of its member schools struggle to create and maintain an effective Board of Trustees within their respective communities This mixed methods study explores and describes some of the necessary skills, competencies, and responsibilities that independent school boards need to be effective and ultimately fulfill the school mission.
