The Weedsport Central School District Board of Education is made up of five (5) unpaid residents elected by district voters to serve overlapping five-year terms. Collectively, the Board of Education members:

• Adopt district policies and ensure their implementation;
• Develop and adopt an annual budget for voter approval;
• Approve the educational program, including course offerings and instructional materials, upon the recommendation of the Superintendent;
• Establish goals for student achievement and monitor progress toward those goals;
• Act on the Superintendent’s recommendations regarding personnel, contracts, and other matters as required by law; and
• Serve as a vital link between the community and the school district through open communication and transparency.
   

The Board of Education is charged with defining the district’s mission, vision, and core values, and with ensuring the district’s long-term fiscal and educational health. In totality, the members of the Board of Education are the stewards of the investment that the community makes in preparing the students for enhancing our society. Board members serve as stewards of the community’s investment in public education, ensuring that resources are used effectively to support student learning and success.

The Board of Education is committed to ensuring that every student learns, thrives, and is prepared to contribute meaningfully to society. We value moral, ethical, and cultural development, promote lifelong learning, and cultivate an understanding of the rights and responsibilities of all citizens. Each student is welcomed as they are, and our educational environment supports positive growth, personal development, and well-being.

Our programs provide students with the academic skills and knowledge they need to reach their full potential, the opportunity to explore their interests, and access to services that support their physical, mental, and emotional growth. We foster integrity, self-discipline, good character, self-confidence, and a sense of purpose. Extracurricular and co-curricular activities are offered when possible to enhance learning, provide multiple educational pathways, and encourage creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, communication, and civility.

The Board values collaboration among parents, guardians, staff, and the community to create an academically challenging, socially inclusive, and safe environment. We are committed to maintaining a space where students can grow academically, socially, emotionally, and physically while engaging with an invested and supportive community.

We affirm the importance of public education, recruit and retain highly qualified staff, manage the District responsibly, and establish policies that ensure all students achieve success in alignment with our mission, vision, collective commitments, and brand of “Inspiring Excellence. Ensuring Success.”
