Board members elected for a full term at a regularly scheduled school board election in November, of odd-numbered years, serve for four years. Board members appointed to fill a vacant position will serve until the next scheduled school board election. The newly elected Board member will serve for a term elected by policy 201.80 Board Vacancies. A Board member elected to fill a vacancy will serve out the unexpired term.

Being a Board member is a unique opportunity for a citizen to participate on a governing board of the school district. Eligible Board members are encouraged to consider running for more than one term.
