The Board of Trustees derives its legal status from the Texas Constitution and the state legislature. Board members are elected each May and serve three-year terms. Members of the Board of Trustees receive no compensation for their service. Meetings Regular board meetings are normally held on the second Tuesday of each month. Special meetings are held as necessary.
All meetings are open to the public.
Agendas for all meetings are posted in the foyer of the Central Administration Building at 703 West Avenue D at least 72 hours in advance of all meetings and are announced through local media. The public is invited to attend. Persons wishing to address the Board may do so during the Open Forum portion of each regular meeting or may call the superintendent's office at 547-1227 to request to be listed on the agenda. However, the Board may not act on any request made during the Open Forum unless it is listed on the agenda for that meeting.
