The Board of Directors at Green Trees Early Learning Center provides caring, dedicated leadership that helps our small non-profit thrive.

Our Board members dedicate their time and talents because they believe in the power of early childhood education and the power of our extraordinary community. Their guidance helps us create a warm, safe, and welcoming environment where children can learn, grow, and discover their potential. And they understand that when families, teachers, and neighbors come together, we lift one another up and create a stronger, more connected community and a brighter future.

With gratitude, we recognize their commitment to:

  • Upholding our mission and keeping our children and families at the heart of every decision.
  • Supporting teachers and staff so they can do their best work every day.
  • Ensuring fiscal stability and growth by overseeing budgets and resources to keep our center accessible and sustainable.
