Board of Directors Candidates

We are happy to announce that MVCS is currently reviewing Robbie Saavedra as a Board candidate. The Board Nominating Committee welcomes any comments regarding his suitability to serve on the Board. In addition, MVCS has additional openings on its Board of Directors. Because we have a strong parent membership, at this time we are especially interested in adding community members who are not parents of students to add diverse perspectives and expertise. If you have someone to recommend for our Board, please let the Board Nominating Committee know. Members of the committee are Nathan Brantley, Rayna Stollsteimer, Laurajean Downs, and Kami Costello; you may contact one of these people directly or leave a comment on the Contact the Board form HERE.
