The PITT Board of Education is a body that governs the PITT Community School District, which comprises nine high schools and three middle schools in Pitt County. Its duties include the administration of the community schools, the operation and maintenance of the district’s schools, the administration of the Community School Board, and the operation and maintenance of the PITT Community School District Foundation. The Board is composed of fifteen members, nine elected at-large and six nominated by the board’s five members.
the schools board is supposed to be comprised entirely of local citizens, while the community school board is supposed to be composed of the parents or guardians of students whose families reside in the district.
So what are the responsibilities of the schools board? Mostly, it’s to make sure the schools are running smoothly, especially the schools with the highest-need students. It also deals with keeping the schools from becoming “district schools” and from using district funds to operate those schools out of the state. The community school board is supposed to be comprised of the parents or guardians of students whose families reside in the district.
The community school board, while it does have some responsibilities, is basically a big rubber stamp that the district wants to have on any new schools that it wants to approve under its jurisdiction. If the district wants to get rid of a school, the community school board lets them do it. If they want to keep a school, the district has the power to do it too.
The district has a lot of power. The community school board has a lot of power too. And when it comes to the school district, it’s not even close.
