Governing Board | Mid-State Special Education

The Mid-State Special Education Joint Agreement is governed by a Governing Board comprised of a duly designated board of education member of each of our member districts. The Governing Board meets at least annually to take final action on items upon the advice and consent of the Executive Committee board. The Governing Board meets each August to hold an annual budget hearing and approve the budget, ratify the employment of employees, and delegate authority and duties to both the Executive Committee and to the Special Education Director.
