The Academia Cesar Chavez Board of Directors is responsible for the wellbeing of the school, ensuring that the mission and vision is reflected in every aspect of the organization.

Board meetings are open to the public to attend, and the meeting schedule for the school year can be viewed below.  The meetings are typically held on the fourth Thursday of every month, with no meeting in November and a meeting earlier in the month in December.  The agendas for each meeting are posted here at least three days in advance.  Meeting minutes are posted on the website after they are reviewed and approved by the board at the following meeting.
