Function
The Board of Education is elected locally by the residents of the school district. The
seven-member board establishes policies and adopts regulations for the conduct of
the district schools. Board members are elected for three-year terms.

It is important to note that the board must act as a whole unit. Individual board mem-
bers cannot make decisions independent of the other members. The responsibility for
administering board policies rests with the Superintendent of Schools.
