TIS Board of Directors and National Advisory Board
The
Intergenerational School is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit
organization governed by a Board of Directors,
which serves the same function as a traditional
public school board. TIS is ultimately accountable
to its sponsor and the State Board of Education,
a board elected by the voters of the state of
Ohio. However, policy relating to the operation
of the school is determined by the TIS Board
of Directors in accordance with applicable federal
and state law.
At
the time of this writing, meetings for the 2006-2007
school year will be held on the 3rd
Monday of each month at 6:00 p.m. at the school.
Any individual wishing to receive mailed notice
of Board meetings or a copy of Board minutes
should call the school to make this arrangement.
The
Board of Directors approves all personnel actions,
budget actions, and enacts policy. Minutes of
Board meetings are kept on school premises.
