Governance
MBIS is governed by a Board of Directors and a Board of Trustees. There are 13 members on the Board of Trustees, and 6 members on the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors meet monthly and directly govern the school; however, major decisions, such as approval of the annual budget, taking out a new loan, or making changes to the Acts of Endowment, need approval from the Board of Trustees. The Head of School, as mandated by Japanese Law, is a member of the Board of Trustees and Board of Directors. The Board of Trustees meets four times a year. Two independent auditors provide oversight for the Board of Directors and the Board of Trustees.
