School Board members are elected officials who devote many hours setting policies and planning for your public schools. We serve on the School board because we care about providing quality education in our community. Popular control of public education is one of the cornerstones of a free society. The people exercise that control through their Board of Education. We appreciate your interest and comments and ask your participation to help us meet that goal.

The Independence Board of Education encourages school staff and interested citizens of the school district to attend its meetings. Time is provided near the beginning of all Regular monthly board meetings for questions and concerns from the public.
