Student leadership are invited to attend part of a Board meeting twice per year. Student Trustees (without voting rights) are encouraged to represent the voice of the student body on important issues.
Typically, in quarterly meetings the Board will hear School KPI reports from the Director, committees’ members who will discuss any issues of relevance, and make decisions in accordance with the goals that the Board has set itself. A large portion of the Board’s work is executed in, through, or with the support of various committees. The Board empowers the Director to lead the day-to-day operations of Ignite School.
