Flagstaff Academy's Organizational Structure

As a charter school, Flagstaff Academy has two major organizational units: Operations and Academics. As a publicly-funded charter school, Flagstaff Academy is a 100-employee company that operates under a contract with the St. Vrain Valley School District to operate our amazing school. That means that we have a professional staff dedicated to each of these operations.
 

Academics

The entire PreK to 8th grade academic program is lead by the Executive Principal. The Executive Principal is a highly experienced educator and school administrator responsible for curriculum development, instructional practices, teacher hiring and development, and student success. The Executive Principal supervises the Assistant Principals in charge of the elementary and middle schools as well as the Student Services functions such as Special Education, Counseling, and School Culture. The Executive Principal and Assistant Principals are the traditional principals that many of us are familiar within a school setting. Their expertise in academics is the primary function of Flagstaff Academy that leads to the success of our students.
 

Operations

All business operations and strategic leadership is led by the Operations Director. The Operations Director is a highly qualified leader responsible for finance, facilities, safety, human resources, and information technology. As a charter public school, functions normally associated with a central office or district are performed by our Business Office. Flagstaff Academy manages our own finance including budget, payroll, purchasing, and facilities needs. We manage our own human resources including benefits administration and legal compliance. The primary role of Operations is to give the Academic program the tools and resources needed to provide the safest, best educational program in the region.
