The job of the Board is to represent our community and to lead the district by determining and demanding excellent organizational performance. To distinguish the Board’s own job from the job of the Superintendent, the board will:

 

1. Ensure that the mission and Ends are the focus of the organizational performance.
2. Use appropriate avenues to ensure input from students, staff, parents and the community as a means to link to the entire community.
3. Develop written governing policies at the broadest levels,
   1. Ends: Organizational products, impacts, benefits, or results for specified recipients and their relative worth (what end result is desired for whom and at what cost).
   2. Executive Limitations: Constraints on executive authority which established the practical, ethical, prudence, and legal boundaries within which all executive activity and decision-making will take place.
   3. Board/Superintendent Relationship: How authority is delegated and its proper use is monitored; the Superintendent’s role, authority, and accountability.
   4. Governance Process: How the Board will conceive, carry out and monitor its own work.
4. Ensure Superintendent performance by monitoring Ends and Executive Limitation policies.
5. Ensure Board performance by monitoring Governance Process and Board/Superintendent Relationship policies.
6. Advocate for legislative change, which positively impacts public education.
