Compliance with state regulations & the school’s Charter
Financial stewardship, facility planning, and budget priorities
Recruitment and evaluation of the Executive Director
Oversight of policies, governance procedures, and institutional growth
Board Composition
Six parent-elected directors, serving staggered 3‑year terms
One appointed community member, offering external perspective
Non-voting administrators (Executive Director, HS Principal, K-8 Principal) support communications and school operations
Meetings & Engagement
Monthly Meetings: Held typically on the fourth Tuesday at 6 pm, on campus (with virtual option). Agendas and meeting information are posted on our school calendar, and minutes are archived on BoardOnTrack.
Public Participation: Each meeting begins with an open comment period; community members may also submit remarks via email (board@enoriveracademy.org).
