Each of the five trustees represent specific geographic zones in the district.
Individual members have no authority to act on their own but meet as a board in a formal session.
They receive no salaries or benefits and are elected to a three-year term. School board meetings are held at the Meridian City Hall on the second and fourth Monday of each month. An agenda is published on the Friday preceding the meeting. Copies are available at the district office. The board offers numerous opportunities for patrons to serve on advisory committees and participate in policy making decisions.
