In this webinar, Board Chairs will gain clarity regarding which policies the board should approve, and which policies are operational and don’t require board approval. Independent school attorney Sara Schwartz will explore key Board policies such as Whistleblowing, Conflict of Interest and Non-Discrimination, while also highlighting the relationship among Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation and the role that Board committees play in policy development. This session will explore the Board’s role in operational policies such as the Employee and Student Handbooks, Admission policies, AI policies and Document Retention, even addressing state law requirements that may be implicated.

Presented by Sara Schwartz, Founder and President, Schwartz Hannum PC
