School Board

The Minnesota Legislature enacted legislation in 199­1 authorizing the formation of charter schools. Each charter school is governed by a publicly elected board of directors. Charter school boards are the entity that is legally charged with governing a charter school, and are ultimately responsible to its community. They govern by adopting a mission, vision, goals and policies.

School board members are elected to two-year terms except the community board member who is elected to a one-year term. Terms are staggered to ensure continuity of leadership. School constituents elect four board members in even-year elections and five board members in odd-year elections. The Executive Director and Chief Finance Officer are ex officio members of the board without voting rights. Board members may be contacted by email, U.S. mail-19850 Fenway Ave. N., Forest Lake, MN 55025, or by phone at 651-464-0771.

The board meets on the second Tuesday of the month at 6:00 p.m in the library at the Upper School, 19850 Fenway Ave N.  Park in the east lot and enter through door #7.
