State School Board Members establish a shared vision for schools of the State. This vision that they create, reflects a consensus of the board, community and district staff. The State School Board has a wide variety of additional responsibilities, such as adopting annual budgets and issuing interim financial reports, adopting the school calendar, negotiating contracts with employees (including the hiring of superintendents), approving curriculum materials and closing or constructing schools. State School Board Members serve 8-year terms.
