About

Board of Trustees

The Charles Armstrong School Board is currently comprised of 16 Trustees who volunteer their time and resources to advancing the mission and goals of Armstrong. Board composition reflects the strategic expertise, resources, and perspectives needed to achieve the mission and strategic objectives of the school.
Our Trustees include current parents, alum parents and individuals from the broader community as well as additional Special Trustees – the CAPSO Chair Liaison, two Liaisons to the UCSF Partnership, and our Founder and Chairman Emeritus, Dr. Wilbur Mattison, Jr. The Board works closely with Neil Tuch, who is an exceptional Head of School and fully dedicated to delivering our mission with excellence. 

The Board’s primary work and focus is long-term and strategic; the Board does not involve itself in the day-to-day operations of the school.

We are a working Board that organizes itself around the following committees: Executive, Development, Finance, Buildings and Grounds, Technology, Governance, Head Support and Evaluation, and Audit. Several of our committees include non-Board members.
