Board of Regents
Meet the Chairman
Charles Pierson considers The Oakridge School his family. In addition to his appointment as Board Chairman in August 2021, he has selflessly served in a number of capacities advancing Oakridge, internally and externally, for many years.
The longtime Regent helped to bring to reality the school’s new baseball field at the Oakridge Athletic Complex. He has also served as Annual Fund Chair (2014-2015) with his wife, Pam. The couple are the proud parents of Janae ’19 and Carl ‘22. When he is not busy lending his time to Oakridge or The Sumners Foundation, where he serves as Executive Director, Charles enjoys volunteering with his church and other nonprofit organizations.
