The School Board meets the third Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm in the Junior/Senior High Campus Conference Room. Parents are invited to attend.
The CCS School Board functions under the Carver Model. The Carver Model of board governance is a model that is designed to empower our board of directors allowing them to focus on “how we want students to look” (Ends) when they graduate from CCS. This model also allows the board to write, review and validate clear written board policy (Executive Limitations) that gives clear direction to our Superintendent, which is the only employee the board seeks and hires.
Annually, the board and Superintendent determine what “ends” are the most important at that particular time. The board then directs the Superintendent to accomplish those “ends.” It is the Superintendent’’s job to develop the strategy (Means) for accomplishing those “ends” without violating any of the “executive limitations” given by the board of directors. When violations occur, the board can demand immediate correction or set a time line for the Superintendent to make corrections for that particular policy.
The board validates the Superintendent’’s compliance with our policies through various means of direct inspection.
Examples of direct inspection:
The board operates under the guidelines set forth in our Board Policy Manual.
Policy categories are as follows:
