Board of Education

Homewood School District 153 is governed by a Board of Education consisting of seven residents of the school district. They are elected in staggered four-year terms and serve without pay. The Board of Education determines the policies which guide the operation of the school district.

Copies of the District Board Policy Manual can be found at the district office as well as at the office of each school building.

Contacting Your School Board

District 153 residents are encouraged to attend Board of Education meetings to present their views and concerns. By hearing from the public, the Board is able to make better-informed decisions.

 

When to Contact the School Board

The Board’s role is to establish policy and set goals and objectives for the entire district. The staff is responsible for the day-to-day operation of our schools and the district. Therefore, the best place to direct questions and concerns is to the individuals directly involved and responsible, usually your teacher and/or principal. Our teachers and principals are very good at resolving most problems quickly and productively.

 

If a concern remains, please contact the superintendent.

 

After you have exhausted those available resources, the Board is available to hear your concerns.
