In this episode, we focus on a topic that’s essential for ethical and legal governance: conflicts of interest on charter school boards. As a board member, understanding what qualifies as a conflict—and how to prevent it—is key to maintaining public trust and compliance.
We’ll cover:
- What a conflict of interest is and why perception matters
- Why employees cannot serve on the board under Utah law
- How to identify, disclose, and manage conflicts appropriately
- What to include in a strong conflict of interest policy
- Best practices for prevention, training, and board recruitment
Charter school boards are stewards of public funds and community trust. This episode will help you build clear boundaries, foster transparency, and keep your governance focused on what matters most: student success.
