The governance model that Allegro has selected to implement is a modified policy governance model where the board governs through policy, and the principal manages through procedures. The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible and has the governing authority for the execution of all board responsibilities in accordance with the Charter School Act of 1996. The Board's focus is student achievement, ensuring compliance, and operation with sound fiscal management. The governing board assumes the following responsibilities: 

• Employing and contracting with teachers and nonteaching employees
• Ensuring that all certified personnel, teachers, and noncertified teachers undergo background checks and other investigations before they are employed in the school
• Contracting for other services including, but not limited to, transportation, accounting, and legal
• Developing pay scales, performance criteria, and discharging policies for its employees, including the school's administrator
• Deciding on all other matters related to the school's operation, including budgeting, curriculum, and operating procedures
• Ensuring that the school adheres to the same health, safety, civil rights, and disability rights requirements applicable to all public schools operating in the same district
