The members of the Parnassus Board of Directors are elected by the school staff and the parents and guardians of the school’s students. The School Bylaws require at least five Board Members, including one teacher, one parent, and one community member. Each member is elected onto the School Board because of the particular set of skills that each could contribute to the work of leading Parnassus.
