Board of Directors

Our board of directors is deeply committed to the mission of Prodeo Academy. In addition to their passion for education, they bring a wide range of experience in the areas of finance, human resources, law, consulting, development, governance, and community relations. No member of the school board has been promised or received any form of compensation or gifts from Prodeo Academy's accounting firm. No board member, employee, or agent of Prodeo Academy's accounting firm (or any of that firm's affiliates) serve on Prodeo's board of directors.
