BOARD MEMBERS FOR PUBLIC SCHOOL ACADEMIES
Division/Department: Academic Affairs and Provost - Public School Academies and Urban Partnerships, School of Education and Human Services.
Summary: The Michigan Revised School Code requires an authorizing body of a public school academy to adopt a resolution establishing the method of selection, length of term, and number of members of the board of directors of each public school academy subject to its jurisdiction. On October 5, 1995, the Oakland University Board of Trustees adopted such a resolution when it approved the Oakland University Policy on Public School Academies and Criteria for the Evaluation of Applications. One of the many criteria used to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of a public school academy applicant is its proposed staffing and governance structure. Oakland University requires by contract that successful applicants adopt articles of incorporation that provide for the establishment of a board of directors and the method of selection of its members, including a method by which candidates for board membership will be presented to Oakland University for approval by the Oakland University Board of Trustees.
Public school academies under Oakland University’s jurisdiction nominate candidates for board membership to the Office of Public School Academies and Urban Partnerships (PSA Office). The PSA Office then screens each nominee for eligibility to serve by evaluating a completed questionnaire form, contacting references, ordering a criminal background check, and conducting an interview.
The PSA Office has received the following nominations for board membership from respective public school academies under Oakland University’s jurisdiction, and has completed due diligence for each nominee. Those nominees deemed eligible to serve by the PSA Office will be recommended to the Oakland University Board of Trustees for approval at the formal meeting on October 6, 2004.
Action to be Requested at the Next Formal Board Meeting: Approval of the following PSA board members:
The Board of Directors of Dove Academy of Detroit nominated Mary Voisin for reappointment, for a three-year term to expire on November 1, 2007.
The Board of Directors of Nsoroma Institute nominated Whitney Woods for reappointment, for a three-year term to expire on November 1, 2007; and Desiree Ferguson to fill a vacancy created by term expiration for a three-year term to expire on November 1, 2007.
