In Washington, members of the local school board are called school directors. As a group, they provide governance of the school district. That leadership promotes student achievement through planning, policy setting, advocacy and monitoring performance so each and every student succeeds. The school board makes decisions and sets policy regarding matters such as bond and levy elections, budget adoption, facilities, curriculum adoption, employee relations, and transportation. Each school district has an elected 5 member school board. The school district is divided into 5 director districts (with the exception of Griffin School District) and the candidate must live in the director district they run in. Everyone in the whole school district gets to vote on all the director district candidates. Every 10 years the director district boundaries are adjusted to reflect population changes.
