The Board of Education maintains audit, policy, and academic committees to meet its legal and fiduciary obligations. Board members also serve as representatives on various district committees and as liaisons to schools to enhance two-way communications and strengthen the connection between the governance of the district and PTOs, parent groups and community organizations.
