Trustee Information

​​​​​​​​​As locally elected representatives, the five trustees on our Board of Education represent their respective communities' particular strengths, challenges and demands.

The Trustees engage our communities in building and maintaining a school system that reflects local priorities, values and expectations. They listen to their communities, guide the work of their school district and set plans, policies and the annual budget.
