ARETE ADVISORY SERVICES
Leadership and Governance
Are roles, decision rights, and accountability working?
Evidence we may review
Board structure, policies, leadership responsibilities, and reporting practices. We agree the relevant information, secure sharing method, and confidentiality expectations before requesting school records.
Typical deliverables
Role clarity, governance priorities, and a practical accountability rhythm. Your written scope specifies the actual work, responsibilities, timeline, and follow-up.
Time and pricing
Focused decisions often take 2–4 weeks; a whole-school assessment typically takes 4–8 weeks; substantial strategy and implementation work may take 8–16 weeks. These are planning ranges, subject to readiness and scope.
Assessments are always free. Annual advisory membership is $2 per enrolled student, including full access to processes, content, assessments, reports, an initial results-review Zoom consultation, and scheduled quarterly check-ins. Substantial projects, workshops, and additional sessions are quoted separately before scheduling. Travel expenses are extra and agreed upon in advance.
