Student Board Member

Brea Olinda Unified School District Board of Education is excited to announce the appointment of a student board member beginning with the 2022-23 school year.  The board will begin accepting applications for the 2022-23 student board member position on Friday, October 14. Any student who resides within our district boundaries, enrolled in one of our two high schools and is a senior in good standing for the 2022-23 school year is eligible to apply. For the 2022-23 school year, the student board member will serve a six-month term from January 1, 2023, through June 20, 2023. Subsequent school year terms will be for one academic year.

The estimated time commitment required for the student board member will be two Thursday evenings every month to attend regular BOUSD Board meetings at council chambers in the city of Brea; a one-day CSBA orientation; sufficient time to review the agenda materials in advance of the meetings, which may include consultation with board staff and/or the superintendent for background information related to agenda issues; additional time for handling other board-related business; and time to attend selected advisory group meetings, student meetings, workshops, and conferences, as needed.

Completed applications must be received by 5:00 p.m., on November 1, 2022. Please submit your application via email at: [email protected].
