The
Board's job is to determine a vision for the educational program;
design a structure to achieve that vision; assure that the schools are
accountable to the community; and advocate for continuous improvement in
student learning. While many have had a hand in shaping our school
system, the Sequim Board of Directors must ultimately answer to the
community and the State Superintendent of Public Instruction on issues
related to local programs. The Board selects a superintendent to
administer adopted policies; however, the Board is the final authority
on all matters concerning the district. (RCW 28A.320.010)
The
five-member board sets the policies that guide Sequim's public
education from Kindergarten through grade twelve. All voters within the
school district elect the Directors, who generally serve a four-year
term unless appointed to fill a vacant position. Two members serve in
At Large positions, and the remaining three are elected from specific
geographic areas.
Regular Board meetings are normally held at 5:30 p.m. on the first and third Mondays of each month.
When
a meeting date falls on a legal holiday, the meeting will be held on
the next business day. The Board functions through regular meetings,
special meetings, and emergency meetings as defined in policy number
1400.
