200.1 - Organization of the Board of Directors

The Gilmore City-Bradgate Community School District board is authorized by and derives its organization from Iowa law.  The board will consist of five (5) board members.  All five (5) board members shall be elected at-large.

The board is organized for the purpose of setting policy and providing general direction for the school district.  The board will hold its organizational meeting each year at the first regular meeting following the canvass of votes.  The retiring board will transfer materials and responsibility to the new board.

The organizational meeting allows the outgoing board to approve minutes of its previous meetings, complete unfinished business and review the school election results.  The retiring board will adjourn and the new board will then begin.  The board secretary-treasurer will administer the oath of office to the newly-elected board members.  The superintendent will preside while the new board elects the president and vice-president of the new board.
