The Board of Education and Their Responsibility

The School District of Monroe has a nine-member Board of Education; members are elected to a three-year term with three members being elected each spring during the April spring election.  The Board's role is to provide leadership and establish policy for the School District of Monroe.  The Board sets district goals, determines curriculum and allocates resources to meet its objectives.  It is responsible for insuring that public resources are being effectively and efficiently managed while providing oversight to ensure that students are achieving at high levels and being prepared for the future.

The Board meets at 7:00 PM on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at the Bauer Education Center, located at 1220 16th Ave, across from the Monroe Middle School.  The public is welcome and encouraged to attend all meetings that are held in open session. Time is allotted at every regular meeting for district citizens to make public comments regarding school district issues and concerns. Meetings are also live-streamed on the School District of Monroe YouTube channel located here.
