Our School Board

Our board consists of up to seven board members who volunteer their time and talents in service of our school. The school director serves on the board in an advisory, non-voting position, and one full-time teacher serves on the board with an optional rotating term. We hold school board elections during the annual meetings in October.

The board meets on a regular basis to discuss policies, allocate the budget, and review other matters pertaining to the operation of the school. You're welcome to view the information about upcoming meetings, as well as the minutes from past meetings, posted on this page.

Board Meeting Dates

Our board meets at Birch Grove Community School on the third Tuesday of every month at 4:00 p.m., unless otherwise noted. Meeting dates are subject to change. We will post rescheduled board meetings at Birch Grove Community School, the school website, and on the local Boreal website.
