Responsibilities of Leadership: Northwest ISDs seven-member Board of Trustees is guiding the district toward excellence. As the districts elected leaders, trustees represent community expectations as they chart the direction of educational programs and services and establish the standard by which success is measured.

Responsibilities of the board also include establishing policies for operation of the district and for ensuring its financial viability. Trustees employ the superintendent, approve the budget, monitor expenditures, set the tax rate, and call bond elections.

Board Service: Members are elected to a three-year term of office. On a 2-2-3 rotating basis, board seats are filled during the elections held on the second Saturday in May. All board members are elected at-large. Trustees provide service to the Northwest ISD communities without financial compensation. Candidates to the Board of Trustees must conform to the requirements of the Texas Education Code.
