The general purpose of the Board of Visitors for the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts is to perform a supporting and advising role with regard to the operation of the school. The board may recommend implementation and establishment of policies consistent with policies of the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas. The board shall serve as a liaison between the school, parents, and other constituents, and the President and Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas. Because the board of trustees and the president may delegate broad administrative responsibilities to the administrator of the school, consistent with policies established or approved by the board of trustees, the board of visitors will have the opportunity to give meaningful advice and recommendations to further the development and operation of the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts. The board of visitors shall: Assist in securing financial support for the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts; Advise the administrator of the school, and the President and the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas, regarding the educational, service, and financial needs of the school; Accept and execute specific assignments made by the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas and the President of the University of Arkansas; Keep informed on those matters that are necessary to promote the educational aims of the school for the benefit of the students; Study in detail the reports and issues placed before it by the board of trustees; and Promote, in diverse ways, the growth and development in excellence of the school and the University of Arkansas in general.
