Massachusetts Charter Public School Association

While board members don’t teach, hire, design curriculum, or grade tests, student success should be the focus of every single board of every single school. It is the board’s job to ensure that the school is providing its students opportunities to thrive; the board does this by setting clear goals with the school leader, identifying the key data the board will look at to measure progress to those goals, resolutely monitoring progress throughout the year, and holding the school leader accountable for sustaining success and changing course as needed to achieve those goals. We will share our board dashboard template in this session and answer questions about adapting the template to fit your school.
