Elected by our community, the Lawrence Board of Education is composed of seven citizens from the district who each serve as at-large members and guide Lawrence Public Schools.

Each board member serves a four-year term without salary. The Lawrence Board of Education's primary duties include setting educational policy, approving the district's budget, and hiring and evaluating the superintendent.

The board meets twice monthly, generally on the second and fourth Mondays of the month. These public meetings begin at 6 p.m., unless otherwise announced, at the district's Educational Support Center, 110 McDonald Drive.

Board meetings are live streamed and video archived on our district YouTube channel and televised live on LPS TV 26 (available on Midco with a cable box).
