Board Governance

BOARD GOVERNANCE

The Mt. Hood Community College District Board of Education is dedicated to policy governance, which is a coherent framework of concepts and principles that are internally consistent as well as powerful in dealing with whatever practical situations arise. Pursuant to policy governance, the Board is committed to:

Governing with an emphasis on vision;

Defining results and creating policies to achieve them;

Encouraging diversity;

Providing and supporting strategic leadership;

Creating and recognizing clear distinctions between Board and President goals;

Governing with collective rather than individual decisions; and

Focusing upon the future, not the present or past.
