Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees, comprised of a dynamic, talented group of professionals with a wide range of expertise, works collaboratively with the Administrative leadership team to provide strategic direction, advance River's mission, and ensure financial well-being.

In 2020, with input from faculty and staff, parents and community members, the Board outlined a five-year strategic plan, detailing how the school will innovate, enhance, evolve and sustain its program and one-of-a-kind model, with a steadfast commitment to the mission and overall vision.

Mission

The River School’s inclusive program challenges each child to work collaboratively, to think critically and to develop the confidence to take risks, embrace their curiosity, and find their voice.

Vision

The River School was founded in 1999 to provide a fully inclusive educational program for children with and without hearing loss. The program and service offerings include a full range of clinical services; parent education and support programs; teacher and graduate student training; auxiliary programs for children; and outreach and advocacy efforts. Moving forward, we plan to expand all aspects of our program by adding dedicated staff and space for each of the initiatives.
