Sad news! We have two incredible board members stepping down at this time that we must thank wholeheartedly for the tremendous work they have done for Channing Hall.
Holly Sonntag was a parent elected representative for the board and was held on after her elected term. In the relatively short time of service she has energized the board and been instrumental in many important accomplishments for Channing Hall. With her educators background, incredible intellect and boundless energy she lead a comprehensive search of all of our options for expansion. Her crowning achievement was to barter the deal for the new land purchase. She was able to haggle and deal with a stubborn property holder to pen a deal that was much lower than asking price and nearly half of what was offered several years ago. Her spirit, compassion and open-mindedness will be missed greatly. Holly, THANK YOU for all that you've done and who you are!
Alaina Gull, our Chair, also will be leaving and passing on the leadership of the school. She literally has been the seed and the nourishment for Channing Hall. She was an original founder with the vision for Channing Hall AND subsequently the guiding light. The countless hours and sacrifices she has VOLUNTEERED to accomplish what we now have for our children is immeasurable. From the initial organization, through the planning and building to following through for 4 more years to assure success, she had indeed made Channing Hall her life! The heart, the passion and the organization to accomplish this deserves our greatest respect and gratitude. The words THANK YOU cannot begin to express what we owe- but we hope its a start. THANK YOU, ALAINA!!!
