In this episode, we tackle a foundational, but often misunderstood, topic in charter school leadership: the difference between governance and management. Who makes the big decisions? Who runs the day-to-day? And how do boards and administrators work together to keep the school mission-centered and future-ready?
We’ll break down:
- What the charter school board is responsible for—and what it’s not
- How school administration executes the board’s vision while managing daily operations
- Why clear separation of roles builds trust, accountability, and long-term success
- Common pitfalls like micromanagement and blurred boundaries
- Practical tips for maintaining a healthy governance structure
Whether you’re a board member, school leader, or just curious about how charter schools operate, this episode will help clarify roles, strengthen partnerships, and keep your school thriving.
