Subject: student board member?
Hello everyone.
I'm looking to communicate with agencies/museums that have a seat on their
board of directors that is specifically for a high school/student member.
My Board of Trustees is interested in the idea of having a seat for a
student so that young people would have more of a buy-in with our
organization.
Specifically, we are interested in the following:
--should we start with a student that is a sophomore, so that they can grow
into the position over the next couple of years, or a senior who has more
maturity?
--what specific roles/tasks/duties does your student board member have? How
do they directly contribute to your organization through the board?
--how do you select your student board member when you have more than one
high school in the area you represent (ie. a county historical society)?
--do you open it up to public, private, and homeschool high school students?
Again, how do you solicit "candidates" when you have multiple schools?
Thank you for any insight you can provide on this subject.
