CFS is run and presided over by a group of committed grownups who are dedicated to the rights and happiness of all children, and the idea that their self-empowerment can change the world. Some of the staff are experienced teachers and administrators from the mainstream school system. Some come from other professions but with a passion for education. Some are parents themselves and understand deeply the things we all want for our kids.
