What is the Role and Duties of the Governance Council?
General Responsibilities of Governance Council:

The Governance Council members are responsible for ensuring that the academic program of CCCS is successful, that the school’s program and operation are faithful to the terms of its charter, and that the school is a viable organization. The purpose of the Governance Council is to set the general direction and policy of the school, not manage it on a daily basis.

Specific Duties of Governance Council:

1. Implement the vision and mission statements as well as the school’s

philosophy and objectives. The philosophy should be read on a regular basis

and taken into consideration wherever possible changes of policy are under

discussion.
2. Establish and approve policies for operation of Coral Community Charter

School, ensuring that the provisions of the By-laws and contracts with the

charter authorizer are being followed.
3. Establish fiscal policy and boundaries, with budgets and financial controls

for the school.

4. Select a new Head Administrator when needed.
5. Establish and approve policies under which the Head Administrator will

manage the school.

6. Establish necessary working committees and being sure that all members

are actively involved in appropriate committee assignments.

7. Conduct periodic evaluations of the school, taking into consideration CCCS’s

stated philosophy and goals.

8. Conduct a written evaluation of the performance of the Head Administrator

and establishing goals for the following year.

9. Conduct a written annual self-evaluation, including consideration of

whether the board and its committees are independently knowledgeable

concerning school matters or are relying too heavily upon the Head

Administrator and other staff for guidance.

10. Keep full and accurate minutes of its meetings and those of its committees.
11. Maintain a record book so that governing decisions made over a period of

years may be readily available to subsequent leadership and administrators.

12. Serve on one board committee and/or one board position.
13. Obtain 8 hours per academic year of state mandated governance council

training. New board members must obtain the 7 hour training provided

by the PED and complete 10 hours of training within the first fiscal year of

service.
