Short Course: Selecting a School Board President
(SelBdPres)

Selecting a school board president is as important a board responsibility as selecting a superintendent, developing policy, or adopting district goals. The board president’s primary job is to ensure that the board, in cooperation with the superintendent, effectively and efficiently completes its responsibilities “to govern and oversee the management of the public free schools of the District.” [TEC §11.05(b)]. The points discussed in this presentation cover those areas of leadership that are often overlooked, but must be considered when selecting a board president.
