Dr. Siri Akal Khalsa Named Trustee of NAIS Board

We are proud to announce that Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall’s President, Dr. Siri Akal Khalsa, has been named to the Board of Trustees for the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS). In this position, Dr. Khalsa will work with other Independent School leaders from around the country to help guide the more than 1,400 non-profit independent schools and educational associations that belong to NAIS.

"Serving on the NAIS board is particularly important at this time of great change and development in schools and in the world," said Dr. Khalsa. "As schools encounter the challenges and opportunities presented by an increasingly global future, the success of independent schools will arguably depend upon the foresight and support that NAIS can provide."

During this three year appointment Dr. Khalsa and other trustees will work with the NAIS President to set the annual and long range focus for the organization. The board as a whole will address fiduciary, strategic, and generative duties and goals, led by the officers and the Executive Committee.

With this appointment, Dr. Khalsa and Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall’s message will be brought to the national stage for independent schools.

"We all know what a gem of a school CH-CH is, and how important our approach of teaching the way students learn can be, and we want to carry that message forward," said Dr. Khalsa. "Our long-standing commitments to personalized learning and global education have become priorities for many schools now, and as these discussions evolve at the national level, I hope to make worthwhile contributions as a trustee."

Dr. Khalsa has said that education has opened doors of opportunity in his life, and he sees serving on the NAIS board as a chance to “pay it forward.”
