Board Committees
The Board of Education values input and participation by members of the school community and has established board committees.
These committees are chaired by a member or members of the Board of Education. These committees are not empowered to act beyond reporting to the Board of Education. The committees meet at the discretion of the chairperson.
If you are interested in serving on a committee, please email the District Clerk at reyesm@esmonline.org with your name, contact information and what committee you are interested in serving on. All committee meetings are held in the Board Room at the Junior-Senior High School.
