Policy 299 - School Board Member Compensation and Expenses

 

Minnesota statutes permit persons who serve on public school boards to receive compensation and reimbursement for expenses incurred while performing school board responsibilities. It is the policy of this district to compensate board members in the amount of $450.00 per month. The individual board member serving as chairperson will receive an additional $100 per month. Board members will receive $50 per official standing board committee & appointment meetings. MSBA training will be allowed at $50.00 rate per day as well. The School Board Chairperson has authority to appoint members to standing committees. In addition the School Board Chairperson can designate payments for attendance in district meetings that are not standing committees. School board members who attend meetings outside the district will receive reimbursements for expenses outlined in school district policy 412.

A board member can make a recommendation regarding compensation at the organizational meeting. The recommendation will then be considered at both finance and policy committees before formal action is taken.
