About the Buncombe County Board of
Education
There are seven members of the Board of Education who are elected to serve
4-year terms. One candidate is elected from each of the six districts and
one at-large. Candidates are elected on a nonpartisan basis. Voters in each
district vote for candidates from all districts and for the at-large
candidate. The Superintendent is appointed by the Board and serves as
secretary to the Board.
Board meetings are scheduled for the first Thursday of each month. Meetings
begin with a closed session that typically starts at 5:30 p.m. and the
general session at 6:30 p.m. Meetings are held at the Administrative
Services Building, 175 Bingham Road, in the Board Auditorium.
Individuals who wish to address the board may sign up at the Board meetings.
There is a time limit of three minutes on public comments. Any person or
group wishing to make a formal presentation to the Board or to address the
Board must file a written request to be placed on the agenda at least seven
days prior to a meeting.
