- The school board runs the public school system. The Board of Education is entirely independent from the rest of the county government.
- School board members work together to make school policy, set the budget, and appoint the superintendent to run the schools day to day.
- In addition to the typical responsibilities of a school board member, school board chairs also oversee meetings, moderate board panels, and make sure progress is made toward the board’s overall goals.
- School board members are elected to four-year terms in nonpartisan elections.
