The Kahlotus School District Board of Directors is a critical link between community and school.

Whether elected or appointed, school board members serve their communities in several important ways.

• First and foremost school boards look out for students. Education is not a line item on the school board’s agenda—it is the only item.

• When making decisions about school programs, school boards incorporate their community’s view of what students should know and be able to do.

• School boards are accessible to the public and accountable for the performance of their schools.

• School boards are the education watchdog for their communities, ensuring that students get the best education for the tax dollars spent.​
