The Roles and Responsibilities of a School Board
and its Members

• School boards are so vital that even some Private
  Christian Schools in Orange County CA adhere to
  this model of functioning. The responsibility of
  the school board is to guarantee that school
  quarters are receptive to the standards,
  principles, and primacies of their communities.
  Boards achieve this responsibility by carrying
  out five chief tasks
• Setting the right direction The most important
  objective of a school board is to ensure that the
  school and the school children head towards a
  positive direction. Be it setting the yearly
  syllabus or setting a number of goals for the
  students it is the duty of the school board to
  ensure that the goals set are appropriate,
  challenging and in the end duly achieved by the
  schools, teachers and the students.

The Roles and Responsibilities of a School Board
and its Members

• Founding an active and well-organized structure
  The best schools are usually considered so
  because they have an active and well-organized
  school board running it. Efficient school boards
  use their budgets wisely to appoint the right
  personnel, segregate the taskforce and spread the
  tasks throughout the organization evenly.
• Guaranteeing accountability What makes a
  public-school board truly a public entity is the
  fact that it is accountable for its actions to
  the public. Whether they are answerable to why
  there has been a certain number of dropouts or
  why the local school football team failed a
  public school board should never shy away from
  taking accountability. It makes everyone in the
  system feel more secure and welcome into the
  organization.
