School Board
P A G E 2
Five community members, elected by registered voters, make up the South Whidbey School Board of
Directors. The School Board has governance responsibilities in vision, structure,
accountability and advocacy. The Board believes that effective public school education must be
directed toward common needs of all children, but must also consider the unique differences and
needs of individual children. Although it provides overall governance of the district, the Board
District Office employs and empowers a professional staff of administrators led by the superintendent to carry out
Hours: the district’s daily operations and pursue goals. See our board website for more information.
The South Whidbey School Board of Directors sets policy for the district. Policies are periodically
7:30am—4:00 pm reviewed and updated and new policies are developed as needed. All District Policies can be found
Monday—Friday on Board Docs (linked here), then go to Policies. Paper copies of the
policies can be requested from the District Office by calling (360) 221-6100.
School Board Meetings - Calendar
Summer Hours: The South Whidbey School District Board usually meets twice monthly unless otherwise stated. The
7:30am—1:00pm monthly Board workshop is held on the second Wednesday of each month at 6:30pm in the South
Whidbey Elementary School North Campus Community Room. The Board Workshop is generally
Monday-Thursday used for more detailed discussion of issues, policies, board business, building reports, staff
presentations, etc., requiring more time than would be possible at the regular business meeting. A
Special Business agenda may be held before a Workshop if action needs to be taken. The regular
South Whidbey Board Meeting is typically held on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 6:30pm. These meetings
are used for board communications, business and administration.
School District Public participation is an integral part of successful schools. Meeting agendas are prepared by the
board chair and superintendent and are available on Board Docs prior to the meetings. The
5520 Maxwelton community is encouraged to attend.
