Sonoma County Board of Education

The Sonoma County Board of Education is comprised of seven elected members, each representing a similar number of registered voters in trustee areas that roughly correspond to school district boundaries. Board members are elected to staggered four-year terms, with elections held every two years. The Sonoma County Superintendent of Schools serves as the ex-officio secretary to the Board.

All board actions take place in public session to give interested and concerned citizens and groups an opportunity to be heard. Regular meetings of the Sonoma County Board of Education are held on the first Thursday of each month at the Sonoma County Office of Education, 5340 Skylane Boulevard, Santa Rosa. Get directions.
