Rules for School Board Success

"Effective school boards build a base of competencies (knowledge and skills) that help them succeed in their roles. They know the difference between boardsmanship and governance. They use individual board member competencies (boardsmanship) that contribute to the work of the board, and whole-board competencies (governance) that can only be performed by the board working together. These competencies increase a board's potential for success.

"However, to fully realize that potential, boards need the right beliefs, values, and attitudes - a mindset for success that prepares them to act. Here are six (not so) simple rules for board success."

The National School Boards Association (NSBA) recently offered These "rules for board success," including becoming the vital link between the community and its schools and taking responsibility for everything the district does or fails to do.
