The board is responsible for the Stargate budget, review of the annual audit, Head of School evaluation and compensation, policy approval and corporate level sponsorships. The Governance Board focus is longer term and “big picture”.
Board meetings are open to all Stargate community members and the public. Board meetings offer an excellent opportunity for the Stargate community to understand the issues, future plans, and vision for our school. A typical Board Meeting Open Session Agenda generally consists of the following: Approval of Minutes, Committee Reports, Financial Review, Administrative Reports, and Executive Session (if needed).
When considering contacting a Board member, please remember Stargate’s Communication Chain. If you have a school-related, classroom or child-related concern:
- First, set an appointment and meet with the teacher. Most issues can usually be handled satisfactorily with your child’s teacher.
- Depending upon the situation, a visit to the team leader may be appropriate.
- If the issue is not resolved, set an appointment and meet with either the Associate Director or Head of School.
- If the issue is still not resolved, please contact the Board Chair in writing to determine whether the issue is appropriate for Board consideration.
