TEXAS LAW

And

TEXAS STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION

Texas law grants the board of trustees the power to govern and oversee the management of the district's schools. The board is the policy-making body within the district and has overall responsibility for curriculum, school taxes, annual budget, employment of the superintendent, and other professional staff, facilities, and expansions. The board has complete and final control over school matters within limits established by law and State Board of Education rules.

     The members of the board of trustees are elected by the citizens of the district to ensure a strong educational program for the district's children. Trustees are elected by place and serve three-year terms. Trustees serve without compensation, must be registered voters, and must reside in the district.

     Trustees usually meet at 7:00 p.m. on the third Monday of each month in the boardroom, which is located at the District’s Administration Building on Hwy 105 South, Evadale, Jasper County, Texas. Special meetings may be called when necessary. A written notice of regular and special meetings will be posted on the bulletin of the administration office at least 72 hours before the scheduled meeting time. The written notice will show the date, time, place, and subjects of each meeting. In emergencies, a meeting may be held with two hours' notice.

     All meetings are open to the public. Under the following circumstances, Texas law permits the board to go into a closed session: to discuss prospective gifts or donations, real property acquisition, personnel issues including conferences with employees and employee complaints, security matters, student discipline, or to consult with attorneys.
