200.1 Organization of Board of Directors

The Spirit Lake Community School District board is authorized by and derives its organization from Iowa law. The Board of Directors consists of five (5) members. Each member is elected at-large for a term of two or four years, or for the length of time it takes to complete the unexpired term of a regularly elected member who has left the Board.

The board is organized for the purpose of setting policy and providing general direction for the school district.  The organizational meeting allows the outgoing board to approve minutes of its previous meetings, complete unfinished business and review the school election results. The retiring board will adjourn and the new board will then begin. The Board Secretary will administer the oath of office to the newly-elected board members. The Board Secretary will preside while the new board elects the president of the new board.
