Responsibilities of Leadership
School Boards and Superintendents work as a team to lead the District. The "Team of Eight," consisting of the seven-member board of trustees and the Superintendent, work together to guide the Terrell Independent School District towards excellence. The current board members bring diverse backgrounds and expertise into the system and together.
 
Board Service
TISD voters elect seven board members to serve three-year staggered terms. Five positions are elected in geographic districts and two trustees are elected at-large. Elections are held annually on the second Saturday in May. The Board establishes educational policies to be executed by the Superintendent of Schools, whose primary responsibility is to provide creative and effective administrative leadership. Trustees do not receive compensation for their service on the Board.
 
Board Meetings
The TISD Board of Trustees meets in regular session on the third Monday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at Administration Office, 700 N. Catherine, or at other designated District sites.

Special meetings are held at the Board President's discretion or on request of two or more Board members with 72-hours notice required.

Emergency meetings are scheduled when the Board President or two or more members determine an emergency or urgent public necessity exists with two-hours notification required.

The official agenda is posted at the Administration Building no later than 72 hours prior to the meeting.  The agenda is sent to all campuses, the Terrell Tribune, KYPK, City of Terrell, Chamber of Commerce, the presidents of teacher organizations operating within the school district, and posted on this web site.  Board Meeting Information
