Great Bay Elearning Charter School

“Form 990 is presented to the board of trustees for review at the next public meeting. Opportunities for review and questioning were given and the form filed upon the completion of this step.”

“This policy was developed while the school was still overseen by the exeter region cooperative school district, its founder. Upon being given independent status in 2010 all policies were subsequently reviewed and reapproved by the board during the 2011-2012 school year. The executive director works closely with the board to review and maintain compliance with existing policies.”

“As administrator of the school, the executive director has a written work agreement with the board of trustees. This document includes the process by which a review and discussion of job performance and compensation is carried on annually. A sub-committee of the board of trustees meets with the administrator, reviews a prepared self assessment, and discusses compensation for the entxt fiscal year. As school administrator filling the role of school principal/superintendent, the compensation is reviewed in context of existing terms and a comparision of surrounding schools/districts. Transitioning from the school district governance in 2010 under a collective bargaining agreement, many of the processes for reviewing performance and compensation of the executive director are similar to the manner in which other public school administators are evaluated and compensated. As a public school employee, the executive director and all other school employees of the charter school--teachers and support staff are reviewed and compensated in a manner similar to their traditional public school peers in new hampshire. All contracts are then approved annually by the board.”

“The great bay e learning charter school makes its public documents available for review in three primary ways. The primary mechanism is via posting on the school website once approved or filed. All documetns are also available in hard copy in the administrative office of the school and documents are also made available for review outside of the school upon request.”
