Regional Board of Trustees

The Regional Superintendent serves as the Ex-Officio Secretary of the Regional Board of School Trustees. Members are elected and meet quarterly and special meetings are held as needed. When citizens want to transfer their property so their children can attend school in a neighboring school district, the Regional Superintendent provides guidance on the procedures involved and legal requirements Petitions for transfers are filed with the Regional Superintendent, and a hearing is held with the Regional Board of School Trustees, the deciding body in such matters.
