We recognized the value of good governance as a foundation for great leadership.
Harding Academy is an independent school that, from its earliest days, has recognized the value of good governance as a foundation for great leadership. Indeed, independent governance is one of the hallmarks of our industry. Boards of Trustees set the context for leadership and establish strategic priorities, and in so doing our board helps our school meet its mission. Our Trustees are the stewards of our school, ensuring that Harding Academy exists not just for today’s students but also future generations.
