The Board of Trustees acts as the school district's policy-making body and is the official representative of the people for all public education in the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District. The Board functions according to state and federal laws, the rules and regulations established by the State Board of Education, the Texas Education Agency and the will of the people as expressed in district elections.
They are a dedicated group of community leaders who are elected to overlapping four-year terms and represent a specific areas within the boundry's of the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District. Although each trustee represents a different area, they represent the entire district as Board members. The trustees bring a wealth of experience and concern for children to their position.
In response to a new state mandate and ruling from the Attorney General’s office, the LCISD Board of Trustees has changed its election cycle. The new ruling states that school districts must hold trustee elections on the same uniform election date as the election for government officials of municipalities located in the school district or during the general election for state and county officials.
The legal opinion by Attorney General Greg Abbott also requires a school board to change to four-year trustee terms to coincide with the terms of the officials of the partnering city.
The plan extends some trustees terms from three- to four-year terms in order to hold joint elections with the City of Rosenberg . Trustees with election terms that expire in even years would be extended one year to coincide with Rosenberg ’s odd-year election schedule.
Beginning with 2009, all trustee elections will be for 4-year terms.
