In Wisconsin, a governance board for a charter school—especially a virtual charter school—is the governing entity responsible for ensuring the school follows its charter and state law.
The Wisconsin Connect Governance Board is made up of members who are invested in creating an innovative option for students. They meet regularly to discuss needs for the Charter School. The Governance Board meetings are open to the public.
