BOARD AGENDA ITEM

Item Title:Appointment of Representatives to AUSD-Authorized Charter School Boards (20 Mins/Action)
Item Type:Discussion/Action
Background:

In the Fall of 2016, members of the Board asked staff for a review of the requirements of Education Code § 47604, which permits a charter school’s authorizer to appoint a representative to the school’s board of directors. Staff presented on the topic at the Board’s September 13, 2016 meeting. At that meeting, the Board directed staff to research the processes available for selecting district representatives to the boards of AUSD-authorized charters.

 

The time has now come to appoint new representatives to the Boards of Community Learning Center Schools, Inc. (CLCS) and Academy of Alameda (AOA). The District received several applications. Tonight, the applicants will be given the opportunity to address the Board and answer any Board questions before the Board appoints representatives to the eligible charter boards.

 

The candidates’ applications (redacted to remove personal contact information) are attached for review by the Board and public.
