Board of Directors

Board of Directors December 2008

The Education Alliance of Washoe County has a dedicated Board of Directors.  The Alliance maintains a 51% private sector participation on the Board of Directors.  In addition, the three CEO's from UNR, TMCC, and WCSD are standing positions on the Board. 

Directors interface with Education Alliance and WCSD programs, State, WCSD and Higher Education Committees, and fundraising for key educational initiatives.  The Board is a working Board and most participants roll up their sleeves to learn and become involved.
