Partnering for a Shared Vision
The partnership brings together the SWRC’s visionary leadership and spirit of innovation and the Bainum Family Foundation’s longstanding commitment to Adventist education. Under the terms of this partnership, the new model school system will operate with an independent Board of Directors tasked with overseeing governance, centralizing operational functions, and ensuring long term educational sustainability.
Together, SWRC leadership and the Bainum Family Foundation will lead the initial implementation phase with plans to transition management to the newly established governance body in the coming years.
