3. Starting Your Own Private School Board
==================================
The role of the board is best understood when each board member accepts and follows the one-voice principle, whereby each board members have the authority to speak in their governance capacity only when attending official board meetings. When the board speaks, it must speak with one voice rather than multiple voices of the individual members.
TERM LIMIT – ROTATION FOR BOARD MEMBERS
The trend seems to be changing bylaws that limit terms:
- Two 3-year terms
- Three 2-year terms
FUNCTION OF THE BOARD
- Determine the mission, vision, core values, and educational philosophy of the school
- Maintain school policies
- Select, evaluate, and nurutre the Head of School
- Ensure financial solvency
- Require periodic audits
- Help represent the school externally
- Serve as the final court of appeals
- Evaluate and improve itself as a governing body
Starting a school begins with a dream, grows with hope and succeeds with hard work of a founding board. If you are up for the challenge, I can be of assistance in making your dreams come true.
