Policy
Audit Committee
The primary responsibility of the audit committee is oversight of the independent audit of the Board of Education's financial statements, from the selection of the independent auditor to the resolution of audit findings.
Facilities and Operations Committee
The primary purpose of the Facilities & Operations Committee is to assist the Board in exercising its fiduciary duty of oversight with facilities, real property and all non-instructional operations. The committee will serve as the Board's repository of information in these areas.
Intergovernmental Relationships Committee (IRC)
The purpose of the Intergovernmental Relationships Committee is to monitor activities of the governmental bodies with relationships to CMS, specifically the executive and legislative branches of the federal government, North Carolina, Mecklenburg County and Mecklenburg County municipalities. The committee will also draft legislative agendas for Board approval and monitor their progress.
Policy Committee
The purpose of the Policy Committee is to review policy proposals and make recommendations to the Board of Education regarding proposals to revise or retire existing policies or adopt new policies.
Municipal Education Advisory Committee (MEAC)
The purpose of MEAC is to ensure steady communication and collaboration between the district and the seven municipalities in Mecklenburg County, allowing the Board to understand and serve the special needs of each municipality as articulated by its committee representatives.
Calendar Committee
The Calendar Committee's purpose is to create calendar options for each year for the Board to choose and approve. The committee is made up of a Board member and staff members who work to prepare district and academic calendars two years in advance.
Community Equity Advisory Committee
The purpose of the Community Equity Advisory Committee is to advise the Board on the best ways to achieve equity in the district's schools. Half of the committee members are chosen by individual Board members; the other half are voted on by Board members at a regular meeting.
