The Board of Trustees is a policy-making body of persons elected by the citizens of a school district. The school administration executes the policies that it establishes. Board members have no authority except when functioning as a board member in an official meeting.

Candidates run for specific places but do not represent certain geographical areas. Following the annual election, the Board elects a president, a vice-president, and a secretary to serve one-year terms.

As elected representatives of our community, we are committed to making informed decisions that shape the future of our schools. Our responsibilities include:

• Policy Development: Crafting and implementing policies that promote high educational standards and equity.
• Budget Oversight: Ensuring that financial resources are allocated efficiently and effectively to support student learning and well-being.
• Superintendent Supervision: Collaborating with and providing oversight for the Superintendent to ensure the district's strategic goals are met.
• Curriculum and Instruction: Evaluating and approving curricula that meet the diverse needs of our students and prepare them for future success.
• Facilities Management: Overseeing the maintenance and improvement of school facilities to provide a safe and conducive learning environment.
• Community Engagement: Encouraging active participation from parents, students, teachers, and community members to foster a collaborative educational community.

Our mission is to support every student in reaching their full potential by prioritizing safety, equity, and excellence in all our decisions. We invite you to explore our initiatives, participate in our meetings, and join us in our dedication to student success and safety.
