Aberewa Middle School

Rooted in Wisdom. Rising in Purpose.

Developing Organizational Structure

Leadership & Governance

A student-centered leadership model connecting instructional quality, IEP implementation, documentation, family partnership, and responsible growth.

Development-stage notice: Roles described here are part of the school’s proposed operating model and will be finalized through hiring, governing documents, legal review, and applicable approval processes.

Principal and Special-Education Coordination

The principal will oversee school leadership and special-education coordination, including program implementation, compliance systems, service delivery, instructional quality, and staff accountability.

Assistant Principals

Assistant principals will be trained to support IEP planning and drafting, documentation, progress monitoring, meeting preparation, and other required support paperwork.

Collaborative IEP Teams

IEPs will remain collaborative team documents developed with families, educators, service providers, evaluators, administrators, and other required participants.

Responsible Growth

As enrollment grows, leadership assignments and special-education staffing will expand so responsibilities remain manageable, timely, and student-centered.

Founder’s Instructional Role

Founder Antoine L. Mason Sr. plans to serve as an English Language Arts instructor and will not serve as principal. His professional title will be updated after the EdD is formally conferred.

The separation between founder and principal roles is intended to support instructional focus, defined accountability, and professional school leadership.

Governance Priorities

Student Safety

Clear responsibilities, trained personnel, documented procedures, and timely response systems.

IEP Integrity

Family participation, required team members, progress monitoring, service documentation, and accessible communication.

Public Accountability

Transparent development status, responsible financial practices, and policies approved through the school’s governing process.
