From staff reports
Riverview Charter School (RCS) is now taking nominations for its Board of Directors.
RCS is seeking five board members, each to serve a two-year term from January 2023 through December 2024.
Three of the board members will be seated through the election process and the remaining two appointed by the currently seated board. The plurality of the vote will identify the first three candidates to be seated on the board. Following the election, the Riverview Board of Directors will then select two additional candidates from the nomination pool for appointment to the board.
Six of our current board members will be returning to serve the second year of their two-year terms.
In order to be most effective, according to a letter from RCS Board Chairman Reece Bertholf, the board needs a breadth and depth of experience and specific skills in education, facilities, finance, fundraising, legal, business, human resources, public relations and marketing and previous governance experience (non-profit or corporate).
The Board Nomination and Election process and timeline is as follows:
Nov. 18: Deadline for submission of nominations.
Nov. 21-25: Candidate eligibility review.
Nov. 28: Ballets distributed via email.
Dec. 5: Deadline for receiving votes is 6 p.m.
Dec. 15: Announcement of election results at regularly scheduled board meeting.
