Accountability &
Responsibility
Holding Ourselves Accountable
The Whigham School is a non-profit organization. All operations and finances are overseen by one of school’s two active boards: the Operating Board of Directors. All financial transactions and systems will be reviewed by an outside, independent accounting firm which will report annually on the financial health of the organization. All future planning and development, as well as operational and financial oversight will also be managed by the Advisory Board of Directors and a separate group of Student Investors & Program Donors to ensure The Whigham School is being managed properly both in terms of operations and finances.
