Abstract
School systems are governed in an antiquated model not reflective of the democratic principles they espouse. The present model was created in a bygone era and should be replaced with one that is more congruent with professional organizations and democratic structures. This paper will briefly show the present governance structures of our schools and the fallacies they support. The remainder of the presentation will focus on imagining a new model which supports the tenets of democratic decision making and leadership.
