Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District Board of Education utilizes a Coherent Governance® model.
School board members are elected officials who represent the State of Wisconsin in providing education programs and facilities for the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District. They must follow State law and generally adhere to the Coherent Governance® model when making decisions. School board members can only take official action at meetings that have been properly authorized and held in accordance with the law.
Here is a more detailed explanation of each part of the above passage:
School board members are elected by the people of the District to represent their interests. They are responsible for making decisions about the education of students in the District. They also have the authority to enter into contracts, hire employees, and spend money.
School board members must provide students with an education that meets the requirements of State law. This includes providing a variety of courses, such as math, science, English, and social studies. School board members must also provide students with access to safe and clean facilities.
The Coherent Governance® model is a set of principles that help school board members make decisions that are in the best interests of students. The model emphasizes the importance of collaboration, transparency, and accountability. See the “Governance Policies” webpage for more details in this regard.
School board members can only take official action at meetings that have been properly authorized and held in accordance with the law. This means that the meeting must be called in accordance with the district's bylaws and board policies.
