The primary purposes of the governance structure are communication and synchronization of renewal efforts. Councils are established at each school site and in the College of Education. The Coordinating Council is co-chaired by College and school representatives. There are seven major subcommittees composed of representatives from the College and each school or district. Each committee is chaired by College and school faculty elected by their respective committees.
Chairs typically serve two year terms.
The Preservice committee is of the Network's Clinical Adjuncts and University representatives. As the Preservice committee, the clinical adjuncts will coordinate their efforts and develop clinical experiences for practicum student and directed teaching interns. The Committee requests and reviews proposals for funding of mini-grants focused on research and curriculum development in Network schools. The Committee also coordinates efforts to share innovations occurring in the schools through work shops, special activities and publications. The Finance committee is comprised of one representative per school district and appropriate University representatives.
