Board of Directors

The Pilgrim Area Collaborative is governed by a Board of Directors composed of representatives appointed by each member school district – either a school committee member or the superintendent of schools. In addition, the Mass. Dept. of Elementary and Secondary Education appoints a voting member to the board.

The primary responsibility of members of the PAC Board of Directors is “to establish services, programs and procedures that will best produce the educational services needed by member towns. The Board is charged with accomplishing this while also being responsible for the wise management of available resources. The Board must fulfill these responsibilities by functioning primarily as a legislative body to formulate and adopt policy, by electing an executive officer to implement policy and by evaluating results. It must carry out its function openly, while seeking the comments of the public, students and staff in its decision-making process.”
