NIST Foundation Board
As one of the only not-for-profit schools in the Bangkok international school community, NIST is overseen by the parent-elected NIST International School Foundation, which appoints an Executive School Board to oversee the school on its behalf. The majority of the members of the foundation must be parents or guardians of children who attend NIST, and thus represent the interests of the entire community through their governance.
