Governance
The Bishop Miege Board of Trustees and Foundation work in partnership to uphold the mission, integrity, and future of the school.
We are grateful for their leadership and faithful commitment to sustaining the mission of Bishop Miege Catholic High School. Their work strengthens the legacy of Bishop Miege, allowing the school to grow in excellence and opportunity for generations to come.
The Board of Trustees members, approved by the Archbishop, oversee school operations. Since 2010, each Johnson County high school has operated as its own nonprofit, with the Board ensuring alignment with the Catholic mission and responsible management of finances and assets.
