Learn Â鶹ֱ²¥ Our Governing Board

The three Â鶹ֱ²¥ are governed by their own independent board of directors. Each board meets on a quarterly basis to oversee the management, operation, activities, and affairs of the school.

Each board of trustees defines, composes, and revises (as needed) the policies of each of the Â鶹ֱ²¥ schools and ensures compliance with their charter agreements and applicable laws and regulations.
