About the Board

The Board of Education is composed of seven residents of the Oak Park School District who are elected to four or six year terms. The Board elects its President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary in an annual organizational meeting. Our Board members have a variety of perspectives and skills from their personal experiences, education, careers and knowledge of the community they serve.
