Board of Trustees

The Bruneau-Grand View Board of Trustees is charged with making decisions about school policies, ensuring that administrators adhere to the budget, analyze educational goals, and hire and evaluate district leadership. They volunteer their time and talents to ensure the success of every child within our school district.

We invite and welcome parents and community members to attend our board meetings held at 7:00 p.m. on the second Tuesday of every month in the board room unless otherwise posted. We’ve provided our schedule at the side of this page for your convenience.
