The Foundation has a volunteer board of 15 community leaders serving from several surrounding towns. Each director brings to the group a diversified degree of educational background, talent, business experience, and opinions. This ensures the Foundation board has a solid background in decision making processes and a full understanding of the Foundation and Barton College's mission statements. Each will serve a three year term and has the option of serving two terms before stepping down for at least one year.
