STG relies on volunteers to oversee and carry out all of the organization’s activities including the award selection process and fundraising to sustain our mission.  While our fiscal year runs from August 1st to July 30th, we begin the search and nomination process near the end of each calendar year, and are always looking for volunteers who share in our passion of helping students and their families in our community.  If you have interest to serve, please reach out to any of the board members listed here, or use the Contact section of this website to reach out to us.

Commitment

The STG Board of Directors is comprised of local residents who volunteer to serve for three-year terms.  Many of our directors are graduates of Staples High School, some as former STG recipients.  Every Director serves on one of six working committees, each led by a Committee Chair: Database, Donor, Finance, Marketing/PR, Student, and Treasurer.  The full Board of Directors meet in full at regular intervals throughout the fiscal year.  Individual committees meet frequently.
