Board of Directors
The School Board is comprised of five members representing "director districts" with terms of office of four years. In case of a vacant position, the board appoints someone to fill the vacancy until the next regular election.
To become a candidate, a person must be 18 years of age, a U.S. citizen, a registered voter in the district, reside in the director district in which he or she seeks office, file during the legal filing period, and meet requirements of the Public Disclosure Act.
Although board members represent the section of district in which they reside, all voters from throughout the district cast ballots to fill each position. Board members serve without pay.
