Our Board

Penn-Delco School District is governed by a School Board comprised of nine publicly elected directors. The superintendent has a seat on the Board and the right to speak on all matters, but not the right to vote.

The term of office of each school director shall be four years and shall expire on the first Monday of December, except for a school director appointed or elected to fill a vacancy. The authority and responsibilities of the Board are outlined in School Code and consist of roles such as adopting District policies, approving the annual budget, setting the tax rate, and employing a superintendent.

Guidelines for Public Participation in Board Meetings

Guidelines for Public Participation in Board Meetings

The Board recognizes the importance of involving members of the public in board meetings and the value of public comment on educational issues. In order to permit fair and orderly expression of such comments, the Board will provide for two periods for public participation. The presiding officer at each public board meeting will follow these guidelines:

Public participation shall be permitted only as indicated on the order of business in the procedures of this board, or at the discretion of the presiding officer on a given issue.
Participants must be recognized by the presiding officer and must preface their comments by an announcement of their name, address, and group affiliation, if appropriate.
All statements shall be directed to the presiding officer; no participant may address or question board members individually.
The public participation in the beginning of the agenda will be limited to 15 minutes total and to three (3) minutes per person, on agenda topics only.
The public participation at the end of the agenda will be limited to 30 minutes total and to three (3) minutes per person.
The presiding officer may interrupt or terminate a participant’s statement when the statement is too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant.
