News from the Board of Trustees

Packer’s Board of Trustees periodically elects new members while the service of other members comes to an end. Our trustees serve three-year terms, and many serve for more than one term. In June 2022, the Board welcomed two Packer parents and an alumnus to serve as trustees. We are grateful to all of our trustees, who volunteer their expertise, time, and resources so generously to our community.
