BOARD OF TRUSTEES

The primary responsibility of the Board of Trustees is to see that the School operates in the best interests of its students, teachers, and parents. The board sets the purpose and policies of the School, ensures its financial stability, plans for its future, and hires the Head of School, who is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the School.

The involvement of the WSMS board has been instrumental in so many important accomplishments over the years. Among the highlights are the purchase of our current building in 1974; the hiring of Marlene Barron as head of school in 1979; the renovation of our rooftop play space and Garden level in 1983; the construction of a two-story addition at the rear of our building in 1996; the “greening” of our classrooms and kitchen in 2009; the creation of our Parents Room/Library in 2011; the establishment of the Founders Fund for Financial Aid in 2013; and the hiring of current head of school Loren DeNicola in 2025.

We are deeply grateful to our current and former board members, all of whom have given of themselves so willingly and generously in helping to secure the future of our school.
