An important part of school district operation is to have community members serve as volunteers on the Board of Education. School Board members at Cassadaga Valley serve five year terms and are selected during the school board election in the yearly school budget vote and board election in May. This year’s School Budget vote and school board election will take place May 16, 2023.
If you are considering service to your school district and would like to run for the Board of Education you must file an official petition signed by at least 25 qualified district voters (or 2% of the number of voters in the previous election, whichever is greater) with the district office by April 17, 2023. Interested candidates can pick up a petition in the District Office during regular business hours or by visiting our website.
For more information on the budget vote and board election, including how to run for the board please follow this link: https://www.cvcougars.org/page/budget-vote-and-board-election
