The Board of Trustees is responsible for the school’s overarching philosophies, direction and policies and is accountable for all legal and fiscal issues affecting the Hilltown School. It operates using a consensus model and makes decisions on the hiring of Domain Coordinators, and contractual relationships. Members of the Hilltown Cooperative Charter School elect the Trustees at their annual meeting held each May. Trustees serve a three-year term and do not need to be parents at the school.

The school’s three coordinators attend Board meetings as speaking but non-decision-making members. Schedules of BOT meetings, agendas, and minutes are available for parents to review on the bulletin board in the All-School Space.

All BOT meetings are open to the school community and the general public.
