Alyssum Board of Advisors
The role of a Wildflower school board is distinct from the role of management. The board doesn’t manage the organization. Rather the board has three mandates: advisory, oversight, and support.
-
Advisory: to consult with the management about the strategic and operational direction of the organization.
-
Oversight: To maintain oversight of finance and legal, to ensure that the organization complies with the laws and continues to be solvent.
-
Support : Help the teacher-leaders with the things that they need.
