About the Board of Education

The Goshen Central School District Board of Education is composed of seven volunteer members who are elected by the community. School board members typically serve three-year terms and devote many hours of service to Goshen students and the community. They continually strive for improvement, quality, and progress in education.

The Board of Education has legal responsibility for the operation of the district within the framework of the laws of the State of New York. The Board establishes the policies under which the school district will be operated and the Superintendent of Schools is responsible for administering the school program within the context of those policies. The Board’s seven members serve without pay.

Board Meetings

Board of Education meetings are held in the Board Room at the Main Street Building on the first and third Monday of each month, except when Monday is a holiday. Meetings typically begin at 6:30 p.m. Exceptions to this schedule are noted in the school calendar and on the district website.

The Board of Education uses Board Docs, an easy-to-use paperless meeting management software, in order to streamline important Board information, including:

  • Meeting agendas
  • Board meeting calendar
  • District policies
  • Presentations
  • Meeting minutes
