Board of Education
Introduction
West Aurora School District 129 Board of Education
In Illinois, public education is the state's constitutional responsibility. The state delegates to the local school board the authority to govern its district within the parameters set by law.
Voters in our district elect Board of Education members to serve four-year terms. The duties of the Board include, adopting financial information, approving all expenditures, establishing district policy, authorizing employment, setting school boundaries, approving textbooks, courses of study, and developing new, innovative, academic initiatives.
