FISD Board of Trustees

The Fairfield Independent School District Board of Trustees is made up of seven unsalaried community members elected to serve three-year terms. The board provides leadership and oversight for the district by setting policy, approving curriculum and budgets, overseeing facilities planning, and hiring the Superintendent. Trustees act only as a governing body during duly called public meetings.

Public Board Meetings

The Board of Trustees holds regular meetings at 6:00 p.m. on the second Monday of each month at the Fairfield ISD Administration Building. Meeting dates, times, or locations may be changed as needed, and special meetings may be called.
