Welcome to the Governing Board Meeting Archive

This archive was created as a repository for all charter school governing board agendas and minutes.

The governing boards of charter schools in Hawai'i remain exempt from the State's Sunshine Law. However, the governing boards are required to make their meeting agendas and minutes public.

What does the law say about how and when the governing boards need to share these things?

Governing boards must make meeting notices and agendas available at least six calendar days before a public meeting on the board's or charter school's website and this website. Notices and agendas also need to be publicly accessible at the board's or the CSAO's office during regular business hours.

Governing boards are required to make their minutes available within thirty days on the board's or charter school's website and this website and in the board's and CSAO's office during regular business hours.

Hawaii’s public charter schools are governed by their respective governing boards, the independent board of a charter school that is party to a charter contract with the State Public Charter School Commission. The governing board is responsible for the financial, organizational, and academic viability of the charter school and implementation of the charter.
