Board of Education

The Role of the School Board

The Alexandria School Board acts as a link between the school system and the public. It also sets policy for the school district. The School Board is made up of seven district residents, elected at large to four-year terms. Although school board directors are assigned position numbers, each Board member represents the entire Alexandria School District 206. Term expirations are staggered to ensure that the Board has experienced members serving at any given time. Board elections are held in November in years ending in an even number.  

The Alexandria School District 206 Board of Education has established an electronic mailbox to receive constituent comments, ideas and suggestions at schoolboard@alexschools.org.
