• 1. Develop an understanding of Saint Ignatius College Prep’s programs and their strategic direction.

  Your participation as a member of the BOR will have greater value if you understand and appreciate the mission, structure, and work of Saint Ignatius College Prep. Seeing the efforts and achievements of our students first-hand will enhance the value of your efforts. In order to develop a deeper understanding of Saint Ignatius College Prep’s current workings and future direction, we suggest that you:
  
  

  • Attend a school function at Saint Ignatius College Prep (new and existing Regents members) as a way to stay abreast of programs and connected to the school (e.g. a play, concert, or sporting event)
  • Attend a tour of the school (new members), hosted by a current member of the Student Ambassador program.

• 2. Attend all Board of Regents meetings.

  BOR meetings provide an opportunity to learn about new developments at Saint Ignatius College Prep, and build camaraderie among members.  Attendance at BOR meetings demonstrates your commitment (2 times a year, one per school semester).

• 4. Contribute to the success of BOR or constituent-sponsored events.

  In addition to your commitment of time, pledging financial support is an expectation of membership.  It is important that BOR members demonstrate their support through a financial investment in Saint Ignatius College Prep’s future.    Each year, Regents members are asked to select the ways in which they will help Saint Ignatius College Prep, including a commitment to annually contribute or obtain a minimum of $3,500.  BOR members are asked to introduce Saint Ignatius College Prep to at least two individuals or organizations each year, over the course of a 3-year Regents term, who can potentially be financial supporters to Saint Ignatius College Prep. 

• 5. Spread the word.
