ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS A Board Member’s primary responsibility is to ensure that the academic program of the school is successful, that the school's programs and operation are faithful to the terms of its charter, and that the school is a financially viable organization. A Board Member’s actions must always be aligned with our mission, vision, core values and education program.

The essential functions for the Board of Trustees Member are as follows:

  • Financial Oversight: The Board ensures that the school remains a financially viable entity by overseeing the school’s financial condition.
  • Personnel: The Board approves all employment compensation at the school, including benefits through approval of the annual budget.
  • Contracts: The Board, in consultation with Pharos Academy, approves all major contracts.
  • Consultant Support: Board members use their individual skills, knowledge, expertise and/or community relationships to support the school.
  • Community Relationships: Board members act as advocates and representatives of the school in creating and maintaining relationships with the community and other stakeholders.

Board Member responsibilities are as follows:

  • Actively prepares for, engages in, and attends monthly meetings, missing no more than two per year. If unable to attend, will notify the Board Chair.

  • Participating in honest evaluations of one’s own performance and that of the Board.
  • Commits approximately 8 hours per month toward board service, including:

  • Reading materials, preparing for meetings (1 hour)
  • Attending events at the schools, assisting with fundraising and other ambassador tasks as needed (1-2 hours)
  • Attends Board training workshops.
  • Provides the Board and the school with advice and technical assistance in her or his individual areas of expertise.
  • Acts as an advocate and representative of the school in creating and maintaining relationships with the school’s families, the community, governmental bodies and financial supporters.

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS A Pharos Academy Board Member is more than a community volunteer. This person’s work supports the vision that all of our students will achieve high levels of academic success resulting in the creation of opportunities for a brighter future. A Board Member makes the commitment to work and lead with determination, integrity and purpose, and embodies these essential qualities:

  • Passionate with an unwavering commitment to the school’s mission.
