About Us

Members of the Tuba City Unified School District Governing Board are elected public officials who serve as the decision-making body of the District They set policies and decide appeals of administrative decisions. The Superintendent of Schools run the District on their behalf.

All powers of the Board lie in its action as a public body. A "meeting" is defined as the gathering of a quorum of members of a public body to prose or take legal action, including any deliberations with respect to such action that has been properly noticed, pursuant to Arizona Revised Statutes.

Individual Board members exercise authority over District affairs only by way of votes taken at a legal meeting of the Board. An individual Board member has authority only when and to the extent that the Board, by vote, has so delegated such authority.

Any registered voter who has lived in the Tuba City Unified School District for a year or more may run for election to the Governing Board. A Board member may not be a District employee or be married to a District employee.

Members serve four-year terms beginning January 1 of the year following their election. Terms are staggered so that two members stand for election in one election year and three members the next, making it unlikely that an entire new Board will be elected at one time.

A Governing Board member is ineligible to serve simultaneously as a member of any other Governing Board, except that a Governing Board member may be a candidate for nomination or election for any other Governing Board if serving in the last year of a term of office.

Members may serve an unlimited number of terms. In the event a member cannot serve a full term, the Coconino County Superintendent of Schools may call an election or appoint a new member to serve until the next regularly scheduled election.
