Thetford Academy is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees.
Board of Trustees
The Thetford Academy Board of Trustees consists of no more than 21 members, including an alumni representative nominated by the Thetford Academy Alumni Association; town representatives nominated by the school boards of Thetford, VT, Strafford, VT, and Lyme, NH; and numerous members-at-large from the community. The TA Board of Trustees is a self-electing board. Trustees serve four-year terms, with the exception of the town representatives who are elected for one year at a time.
Board Meetings
The TA Board generally meets on the 2nd Thursday of the month with a meeting start time of 6:45 p.m. Meeting dates for the 2022-2023 school year are planned for August 11, September 8, October 13, November 10, December 6 (note change to Tuesday), January 12, February 9, March 9, April 13, May 11, and June 1 (note change to 1st week). The board usually takes a recess in July.
Meetings are open to the public. Starting September 2022, the TA Board will return to conducting its meetings in person in the TA library, with a link provided for those who want to participate virtually. Meeting agendas and the Head of School monthly report are available at this link; meeting minutes are posted directly on this page.
