School boards have been in the news lately, but few people know what their role is in a school system.

“School boards establish the vision and policies, and are entrusted with ensuring that the school district is responsive to the values, beliefs and priorities of the community,” says the California School Boards Association (CSBA), the nonprofit education association representing the elected officials who govern public school districts.

Campbell Union School District’s Governing Board consists of five locally elected public officials who work together with the superintendent to make decisions that will best serve all of the students in our community. Each board member is assigned to a trustee area, although they represent the interests of the entire district:

Richard M. Nguyen - Trustee Area 1 
^{(Lynhaven, Castlemont, Sherman Oaks, Blackford, Monroe)} 

Michael L. Snyder - Trustee Area 2 
^{(Lynhaven, Castlemont, CSI, Monroe)}

Will Slade - Trustee Area 3 
^{(Sherman Oaks, Blackford, Castlemont, Capri, CSI)}

Chris Miller - Trustee Area 4 
^{(Rosemary, Capri, Village, Marshall Lane, Forest Hill, CSI, Monroe, Rolling Hills)}

Danielle M.S. Cohen - Trustee Area 5 
^{(Rosemary, Capri, Village Marshall Lane, Forest Hill, CSI, Monroe, Rolling Hills)}
