As a public charter school, we are overseen by a governing board of directors, the Arizona State Board for Charter Schools (ASBCS), and the Arizona Department of Education (ADE).  The Mountain School Board of Directors is governed by Mountain School’s Articles of Incorporation and By-laws.  The Arizona State Board for Charter Schools issues and renews school charters and oversees charter school compliance with state law.  The Arizona Department of Education has oversight of state mandated testing, federal grant management, English language learner testing, teacher qualifications, school budgets and calendars, as well as providing state standards and school funding.
