Board Governance Program

Intensive learning opportunities for public charter school board members and executive directors

Board Governance Program launches for 2025

Click here to RSVP for our 2025 In-Person Board Convening!

As part of our Great Schools for Connecticut Charter Schools Program (CSP) subgrant competition, the Board Governance Program aims to build capacity and enhance collaboration across our state's public charter school sector.

 The program includes two exciting events tailored for all executive directors and charter school board members, who we are inviting to two cost-free* learning opportunities.

Board Governance Professional Learning Webinar

CTCSA partnered with Mark Sommaruga from Pullman & Comley to give a presentation on school board best practices and provide time for individual Q&A. If you missed the webinar in April, you can watch and review through the links below:

In-Person Board Governance Convening

Our in-person gathering offers charter school board members an opportunity to collaborate, network, address common challenges, and get an in-depth update on the latest updates from across the public charter school landscape.

CTCSA will follow up with further information, including directions, parking, and programming details as the event gets closer. We hope you’ll join us for an exciting evening of collaboration that will empower you to better serve your school and its students!

*The total cost of the Board Governance Learning Program is approximately $1,980 and will be borne by the Great Schools for Connecticut (GSCT) Project using technical assistance dollars from the CSP federal grant awarded to CTCSA by the US Department of Education. GSCT is a competitive public charter school grant program funded under the Congressional Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA, Public Law 114-95), which reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) of 1965.
