Board Committees

Board Committees and Membership
(as of the 2023-2024 school year)

Board policy BDB(LOCAL) Board Internal Organization – Internal Committees (Opens in new window) provides for the creation of internal committees to facilitate the efficient operation of the Board. Committees of the Board serve in a purely advisory role, with no power to take action or direct public business, which can only be done by a quorum of the Board at a public meeting. Committees are established by Board action and trustees are elected by their fellow Board members to serve on committees.

In addition to serving on internal Board committees, trustees also represent the Board on several District and community committees, councils and boards.

Audit Committee

  • Members: Kayla Mendez, David Nance, Connie Brown
  • Purpose: The purpose of the Board Audit Committee is to serve in an advisory role to review internal and external financial audit process and reports

Policy Committee

  • Members: Don Powell, Kayla Mendez, Connie Brown
  • Purpose: The purpose of the Board Policy Committee is to establish policy review and adoption priorities; make recommendations for Board action on policies including the creation and amendment of policies; review policy concerns raised by stakeholders to ensure compliance and fairness

Facilities/Property Committee

  • Members: Connie Brown, Don Powell, Steve Trafton
