Appleby Governance

Board of Governors

Appleby College is one of Canada’s leading independent schools for more than 760 young men and women in Grades 7 to 12. Recognized by its peers for its innovative academic programme and commitment to student excellence, Appleby continues to embrace the vision of its co-founder and patron Sir Edmund Walker, “to produce among its youngsters, potential leaders for the nation and the world.” Founded in 1911, Appleby has evolved into a global leader providing girls and boys from Canada and 47 other countries the opportunity to gain insights and understanding of each other and their world.

The Appleby College Board of Governors is composed of parents, alumni, parents of alumni, and friends of the school. The College Board is the ultimate decision-making body for the school. This critical governance group is always looking to deepen the pool of prospective candidates who could contribute to their work in the years ahead.

The Board of Trustees of The Appleby College Foundation

The Appleby College Foundation is a registered charity, governed by its own board of trustees, to which our endowed funds are entrusted to be invested appropriately and disbursed to the school for very specific purposes.

The Appleby College Foundation’s endowment provides income that is primarily directed to need-based student assistance. Our commitment to offering students an outstanding education is well secured; however excellence comes with a price. Appleby tuition fees are not insignificant. These fees are an investment in students and are reflected in the programmes and opportunities offered at Appleby College. An Appleby College Education would be out of reach for many were it not for the assistance provided by The Appleby College Foundation. Appleby College is committed to attracting exceptional students first and foremost. The opportunities that The Foundation provides will continue to make an exceptional education possible for many.
