Case Study: St. George’s School achieves streamlined governance and faster board administration with Aprio

Aprio board portal supports strong governance at St. George’s School

St. George’s School, a private K–12 boys’ university preparatory school in Vancouver, faced frustration and inefficiency as volunteer boards relied on email to distribute large board materials and manage changing meeting dates. To improve timely access to documents and streamline board communication, the school and its governance consultant adopted the Aprio board portal.

Aprio provided a centralized, secure board portal and hands-on customer support that transformed board administration: agendas and board packages that once took 1–2 hours to prepare now take 10–15 minutes, boards have six years of uninterrupted use, and directors enjoy easy access to linked documents, notes and meeting minutes. As a result, Aprio reduced lost emails and confusion, made scheduling and minute-taking more efficient, and produced more productive, better-organized board meetings.
