To assess how well they do this, NAIS conducted a research study in spring 2006, generously financed by the Klingenstein Foundation. This study investigated board composition, practices, attitudes, and effectiveness. The State of Independent School Governance reveals the results of this study, and puts them in the context of best practice in various aspects of governance. Use this report in evaluating your own board and in identifying areas for discussion and action. This report highlights data that show that NAIS schools excel in offering young people an academically rigorous education that is rich in values. The report, based on the National Education Longitudinal Study (U.S. Department of Education), also outlines some of the ways an independent school education nurtures intellectual growth and helps kids develop into healthy, active, and community-minded adults.
