The Pioneer Board of
Education is a policy-making body that governs the school district in all
educational matters. It has complete and final control over local school
matters subject only to pertinent state law, regulations and decisions of the
state Commissioner of Education, decisions of the courts and the will of local
residents as expressed in local elections.
The Board of Education is comprised of nine
district residents who are elected by the people in the annual school
elections. Board members serve for a term of five years without salary or
financial compensation of any kind for their services.
Regular board meetings are usually held on
the first and third Tuesday of each month. Please refer to the chart below for
the meeting dates and locations.
Meetings generally begin at 7 PM with a
one-hour work session, followed by the business portion of a Regular Meeting.
It is at these meetings that the school board conducts its official business,
receives and acts upon recommendations of the superintendent, and interacts
with students and staff in order to learn what's happening in Pioneer Schools.
Members of the public who wish to address the board are asked to contact the
District Office so that the matter may be placed on the agenda.
The
board appoints the superintendent of schools to serve as its executive officer
in administering its policies in the operation of the schools. The
superintendent is responsible for informing and advising the board on all
educational matters. The superintendent works with the district staff in
developing, implementing and monitoring the programs, activities and business
of the school district.
