  • 2 Teacher Representatives: Selected by fellow educators to provide a classroom perspective
  • 2 At-Large Directors: Appointed to contribute an additional perspective
  • 3 Ex Officio Directors: School leadership and the most recent former Board President (non-voting)
  • Advisory Directors: Additional individuals who may offer guidance and expertise (non-voting)

Board Elections: Elections are held each spring, giving community members an opportunity to help guide the school’s direction. Families interested in serving can reach out to the Board Liason

Board Meetings: Meetings are open to the AHB community and generally take place monthly during the school year. Families can find upcoming dates on the school calendar. 

Community Input & Transparency: The Board welcomes input through surveys, forums, and the Board Parent Liaison, who helps connect families with the Board. Bylaws and approved meeting minutes are available to current families through AHB’s shared Google Drive.
