A school board is a legislative body of citizens called school directors, who are elected locally by the district's citizens. School board directors serve as agents of the state legislature. Each board consists of nine members who serve four-year terms of office, without pay. School directors, although locally elected, are really state officials, co-partners with the legislature. They are designated by school law to administer the school system in each district. In addition to the nine-member board, the board employs a lawyer to advise and administer school law, a secretary to maintain complete and accurate records of the school directors' meetings and other official business, and a treasurer who is in charge of the business and financial matters of the district. The board also appoints the superintendent. The superintendent serves as a non-voting member of the board and, along with an administrative team, acts as the professional resource for educational actions taken by the board.

The Committee members are in charge of serving the school.

Further Explanation:-

The control of Public Education in United States is given in the Federal constitution and is exercised through local school boards. Although, National schools boards have some autonomy, The local school boards are known to be the product of State Legislatures along with some powers that are Enumerated. It is the Federal Government, State Legislatures as well as state boards of education that make policies with regards to decisions affecting local schools. Most of the States in United States prefer to elect the members of the board of the school as the citizens in the districts of the schools elect more than 94 percent of members of board from School itself. There are many states which elect members from the schools but appoint outside members also. The school board members have greater independence in regards to freedom to act as compared to appointed members as they are the elected ones and because of this they don't fear to take any decision which is in interest of the school.

Enhanced communication has allowed for the growth of "networks" of organizations. What are the pros and cons of these new actors

nasty-shy [4]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include the lesson notes or the link to them, to know what you are talking about. Neither the articles of the authors Arquilla and Weimann.

However, trying to help, we did some research and can comment on the following.

It is true that enhanced communication has allowed for the growth of "networks" of organizations. The pro of these new networks is that it allows people who have similar thoughts or opinions, to have a formal channel of communication to express their points of views and fight for their causes.

The con of these new actors on the international stage is that not all have the best intentions in mind. Some of them can use the new networks for negative purposes as in the case of terrorist groups. For instance, John Arquilla affirms that most of these groups are formed to protest against the policies of governments or are anti-status quo.

Some of these groups promote an environmental agenda, civil rights, support any particular ideology or country in disgrace, or simply critique the performance of a public official or government.
