What will you learn?

We launch this session with an overview of the Minnesota charter school sector. Pivoting to the work of the board, you will gain an understanding of the roles and responsibilities you will assume as a board member of a public entity.  We will spotlight the importance of leadership versus management to ensure effective collaboration and oversight.  You will learn about the mechanics of board operating procedures and building practices to ensure board efficiencies.
