MPS School Board

The Minneapolis Board of Education, or School Board, is the elected body responsible for governing finances and policies, establishing and monitoring the strategic direction and goals, and hiring and evaluating the district's superintendent, who serves as the district's chief executive. 
 
The School Board is comprised of nine directors, elected by Minneapolis voters, and two student representatives (non-voting) who are appointed. The superintendent also serves as an ex-officio member of the board. Board members serve four-year terms, beginning in January after being elected in November. Each year in January, the school board selects its leadership, which includes a chair, vice-chair, clerk, and treasurer.
