Who: The Committee
In summer 2023, the Board of Trustees created an ad hoc committee to lead USN through its strategic planning process. The Board contracted Mission & Data, a firm that has worked extensively with independent schools and educational institutions across the United States because this group of consultants prides itself on being mission-driven, community-centered, and data-informed.
