Duties of the Board
The Board is charged with the responsibility of providing the finest educational program possible for the students in the New Diana Independent School District, operating within the legal parameters of the state and federal constitutions, statutes, courts, and administrative agencies.
School trustees make all final decisions regarding school district priorities, policies, personnel, textbooks, expenditures, and growth management. Trustees adopt a budget which is necessary to maintain and operate the schools, levy taxes to support the budget, and submit bond issues to the citizens of the district to finance construction projects.
Elections are conducted even numbered years in November. While candidates run for specific places, they do not represent specific geographical areas; rather, each represents NDISD at large.
