The School is governed by a Board of Directors. Two of the Board are appointed by the American Ambassador to Zambia. One of these members will also serve as the Chairman of the Board.
The remaining five members are elected by the School Association, which is composed of parents and legal guardians of students who are registered for attendance at the school. Of these members, two must have some affiliation with the American Government, and the other three are elected from the general parent community.
Elections take place at the Annual General Meeting held in September or August. Board members serve for 2 years, but are eligible for re-election. School employees and their spouses are not eligible to become members of the board.
Board meetings take place once a month. An agenda is published and parents are encouraged to attend. Minutes are taken at each meeting and are published the following month. Parents can consult minutes of previous meetings. These are available in the school office.
Anyone wanting to contact the school board may direct their enquiries through the school office, or e-mail ais@aislusaka.org. |
